Honoring Celibacy – yet still not evidence of Character

Posted on January 18, 2018 by Romanos

Ambrose’s work “On Virgins” is beautiful. For those clergymen that actually were Virgins when they were ordained Celibate, I applaud and revere them. Even the one’s that were not but remained pure afterward, I applaud their beautiful commitment also, that witnesses to Christ and His Gospel. As for my comments on Celibacy, you (and maybe…

Epiphany 2018 and the Revelation of GOA Clericalism

Posted on January 10, 2018January 11, 2018 by Romanos

For the past 114 years, the Epiphany celebration in Tarpon Springs, Florida, has been a cooperative effort of the hard working members of the local church of St. Nicholas Cathedral, and also a great deal of assistance from the local city government.  Unfortunately the cooperative relationship was dealt a harsh blow this year when the…

Hierarchical Avarice?

Posted on November 6, 2017November 6, 2017 by Romanos

In the same day that we see the scathing letter to the editor of TNH regarding the catastrophe of the Greek Orthodox Church in America (Archdiocesan wide AND Metropolises wide), we then get a letter from Metropolitan Alexios asking for money for a new liturgy book that he sanctioned, because HE did not deem the…

The Blame Game

Posted on September 25, 2017September 25, 2017 by Romanos

The Blame Game by Mr. Steve Johnson Everyone loses in the blame game.  The only ones who don’t know this are the ones who play it.  The financial problems of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America (GOA) have caused numerous articles in national publications to appear. The Titanic is sinking because no executive leader in…

Who Lost Chicago?

Posted on August 7, 2017August 16, 2017 by Romanos

Case studies often involve painful incidents of real people suffering because of some stimulus.  It is no different within the Church.  In his article in the Greek News (page 38), Mr Bill G. Stotis, a proven and successful attorney, business man, and long time servant of the Greek Orthodox Church (at the local parish level…

Ignoring the Laity – Again.

Posted on August 7, 2017August 8, 2017 by Romanos

Ignoring the Laity, Again. by Yianni Pappas It is no wonder that when the voices of the laity are routinely ignored and looked upon as foolish disruptions coming from the presumed unlearned, non-elite class (i.e. non-clergy) of Orthodox Faithful, some parishioners are starting to be more vocal and outspoken.  Who is doing the ignoring? Our…

Another Act of Betrayal

Posted on July 13, 2017July 13, 2017 by Romanos

Another Act of Betrayal I have stood by and supported the Patriarch and the Ecumenical Holy Synod time and again, but if the Ecumenical Patriarch and the Ecumenical Holy Synod can flippantly “change their mind” and go back on their word, then Orthodox Christianity worldwide has another major crisis of integrity. I have stood by…

Posted on June 5, 2017June 5, 2017 by Romanos

On June 5th, The National Herald published an article about the recent death of the ruling Hierarch of Chicago, Metropolitan Iakovos.  In a nutshell, this Metropolis is no stranger to controversy and scandal.  Some have stated there is more controversy and scandal in this Metropolis than in any other one in the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of…
