Ye shall know Them…
by their fruits?
It is incomprehensible to me… honestly incomprehensible. We Orthodox are viewed as schismatic by the infallible and supreme jurisdiction of the papacy for what? For maintaining the Nicene-Constantinopolitan creed in its original trinitarian formulation, for not bowing the knee to that infallible supremacy, for not accepting the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and yet, he does this? It’s as some of us said after the Vatican II documents were promulgated: the only time “traditional” language was used was when talking about the papacy. Everywhere else, it was jettisoned for a mishmash of fuzzy modernist claptrap… the only thing they are interested in is the papal power. What ever the pope does makes whatever he does “ok”. Traditional catholic doctrine - Roman, Orthodox, Anglican, whatever - be … I can’t even say it… but the words from the Orthodox anathemata of the papacy come to mind: anathema marana’tha.
Attack on being human in full swing unscrupulously on all levels. Spiritual war in plain view.
