I sense that the reason there’s a palpable sense of joy in the words of many when commenting on +Kirill, is due to the stunning contrast that is usually on display in the more liberal patriarchates and their dependencies in the New World.

In reply to Fr. Johannes Jacobse. Thanks! At the risk of sounding like a cheerleader, I have really relied on OrthodoxyToday as a great resource for current, thoughtful articles.

Chrys, you would like "The Heritage of Western Civilization" that I posted on OrthodoxyToday.org, yesterday.

Very heartening.

It is ironic, though, that the Patriarch of Moscow would view the media in the West as “liberal.” As someone who endured communism for decades, I can only assume he knows whereof he speaks.

His assessment of Protestantism is also spot on. It is very encouraging to see (or to hear? ) such a prophetic voice at that level. May God bless him!
