Bartholomew Has Arrived

I thought Bartholomew might back out due to whatever mutation we’re up to now with COVID, but no, Bartholomew is a trouper!  He’s there and is looking quite well for a change.  Excited even. The following people accompanied him:  “Elder Metropolitan Emmanouel of Chalcedon, Metropolitans Amfilochios of Adrianople and Stephanos of Filippoi, Neapolis and Thasos, Archim. […]

The St Bartholomew’s Day Massacre: 2021

OK, so while no Protestants were massacred in Paris this year (as opposed to what happened back in 1572), you could say that a lot of our Church’s canons were massacred the other day.  For those who may not know, bishops from the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese chose to celebrate the Divine Liturgy at St Bartholomew’s […]

Bart Goes Papal

Phanar: To avoid becoming like Protestants, ecclesiology must be revised Pat. Bartholomew said that we should revise the doctrine of the Church and admit that in Orthodoxy there is a “First” not only by honour but also “with special powers”. Orthodox Christians need to subject themselves to self-criticism and reconsider their ecclesiology if they do […]

Bartholomew Says Union is Inevitable

Some of our astute commentators brought this to our attention earlier this morning.  If true, it’s a game-changer.   As Bartholomew stated in 2014, this was and is his ultimate goal and Monomakhos has been reporting the signs for the last 3 years.  We may be witnessing the beginning of the end of the Church as […]

Is Bartholomew’s Ukrainian Gambit Failing?

It would seem so if you ask the estimable commentators on The Duran (both of whom are Greek Orthodox). We have highlighted this podcast before. Although it is partially funded by the Russian government (as the BBC is funded by the British government), Alex Christophorou, Alexander Mercouris and the other regulars who comment on this […]

Another Blunder by Patriarch Bartholomew?

After the failure of Crete you would think Pat. Bartholomew and his synod would realize that their papalist pretensions could lead to schism. Greek metropolitan calls on Constantinople to repent and cease communication with Ukrainian schismatics Source: Orthodox Christian “The Patriarchate of Constantinople’s persistence in granting autocephaly to Ukrainian schismatics has led to these sad […]

Pat. Bartholomew: Christmas Enyclical Affirms Unborn Life and Traditional Marriage

Christ is Born! Glorify Him! I saw this over at AOI and agree with the ideas expressed in the editorial. In what can only be termed as a remarkable shift in tone and emphasis, Ecumenical Patriarchate Bartholomew soundly defends the value of unborn life in his recent Christmas Encyclical. His Holiness writes: The Lord assumed […]

Patriarch Bartholomew: No to “Gay Marriage”

Good news is breaking out all over! It appears that the bloodthirsty Neocon/Neoliberal elites who wished to spill American blood and treasure in Syria have been dealt a serious blow. As a sideline to the crises in Syria and Egypt, Americans are becoming more aware that there are actual Christians in the Middle East and […]

Patriarch Bartholomew Gets Letter of Complaint on Paisios’ Conduct

Highlights from the article: Letter from the law firm representing a client allegedly abused by Passios to Pat.
