I was just being silly - the thread line doesn’t say ‘Russian Orthodox in warning’, it says ‘Moscow in warning’. Now, there’s a little bit of history in Europe (and Georgia at the moment for that matter) of what has tended to follow from ‘Moscow …’ and it has usually involved tanks.

You know, since this thread started, I’ve remembered that Stalin thing about ‘How many Divisions has the Pope?’

This could all be the start of something really scary.

The Pope has two divisions:


  1. *] The “left - right” division: “In the name of the Father and of the Son…”
    *] The “up - down” division: “…and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

    SOME might argue that this is really 4 divisions, upper-right, upper-left, lower-right and lower-left,… but I think that’s only a semi-userful “propoganda” ploy to make the Pope’s forces look “bigger”…

    …like a blowfish. (Won’t work with the Russians!)

Nothing. It’s a canonical issue. It would sort of be like inviting the SSPX in on Ecumenical talks with Rome.

As a matter of principle, the PoM has stated it will not take part in meetings that include the break away Estonians under the EP (the canonical Estonian Church is part of the PoM: btw, Patriarch Alexei is Estonian).

I don’t want to sound dumb, but what’s Pom? :confused: :confused: :confused:

Sorry, our jargon: Patriarch of Moscow.

Oh, poo!

I thought it was a reference to some (rather unusually “vocal”) Pom(eranian)!

How disappointing,… as my little girl pommie “Georgie” was really quite excited about this news.

If it makes you feel any better, I think they use Pomeranians for the fuzzy hats.
 
The problem in the Anglican Communion stems from a lack of authority. By this, I mean that the Communion lacks a leadership who is able to declare and define doctrine and dogma.

Unfortunately, the Anglican Communion has always had a problem with obedience. In fact, disobedience caused it’s very existence.

Although I may be hard towards the Anglican Communion, we must also remember that these divisions are only further wounding the Body of Christ. This is not a good thing. I pray that many Anglicans leave the mess of the Communion and come home to the Catholic Church.
