16 April 2017. Fr Vazken on the Resurrection

Some jerk is going to say:

They’re not in communion with us. They’re not Orthodox.

Hey, that’s Orthodoxy for ya… we fight with one another… sometimes, even deny each other the chalice… but we’re one people, one faith, one heart, one soul… for there’s only one Christ. Let those with open hearts and souls hear…

The Orthosphere lives. There IS a unity amongst all Orthodox, both Eastern and Oriental, despite the theological disputes. Look at the love between Russians and Armenians… need I add more?

1 June 2016. A Colloquy on VVP… What He Is… What He’s Not… He’s NOT a “Royal”

VVP’s elder brother died of starvation during the Siege of Leningrad. That’s why Russia remembers on 9 May… and why the American filth who laugh at Victory Day are inhuman sludge. Russia remembers real suffering and loss… that still resonates in the heart today… the Anglo turds have no sense of real values and honour (after all, “winning is the only thing”), so they laugh and belittle that. Let God see and judge…

My interlocutor is in plain type; I’m in italics.

That they showed him respect is how it should be done, but people need to quit saying this is a sign he’s becoming emperor or tsar. He’s not, and he’s said he doesn’t want to be.

He’s the most powerful ruler in the Orthosphere… but he’s not a monarchist, never was, isn’t, and won’t be. He has more good-sense than that. Monarchy is deader than the dodo in Russia, and it ain’t coming back, no way, no how.

Indeed. Unfortunately, there are too many who seem blind of that fact. There are things about Putin I respect and things I scratch my head about, but in the end, he isn’t going to be the new imperator; he has no desire to be, and those that think so are almost idolatrous in their admiration of him.

I wonder what they’d say if they found out that VVP wasn’t anti-gay and that the RF government allows transsexuals to alter their internal passports on submission of medical evidence. In reality, he’s not the “conservative” that they think he is!

I think that’d enrage more than a few. That… and how he jails holocaust deniers and white supremacists… is really a problem for the right. Those, and the fact he laments the fall of the Soviet Union.

24 May 2016. The Orthosphere is ONE!

______________________________

No, Oriental and Eastern Orthodox aren’t in communion, but we DO form a coherent historical, sociological, and cultural whole, especially, in relation to the heterodox confessions (and even more so in relation to the Antichristian “Evangelicals”). The Orthosphere exists… its cultural unity surpasses being out of communion and being theological opponents for centuries. Can we hope that our present disunity can find a solution in our time? God willing, it can!

9 April 2016. Armenia Under Threat of Turkish-Anglo Aggression

______________________________

This week, Azerbaijani forces attacked Armenian forces, no doubt with the acquiescence (if not approval and praise) of the USA and Turkey. Armenian people should notice this and notice who their true friends are. We Russians are their friends… not the Anglos… not the papists… not the West. Only Russia has the means and will to defend Christian Armenia from naked American aggression (let’s call things what they are). The Orthosphere is a reality… all those calling Paffhausen pro-Russian have kasha in the head… he’s an unrepentant neocon who supports the Republican enemies of the Orthosphere (and Langley’s subversion of our homelands). Do have a care with the konvertsy… they’re sung in bed with the enemies of the Rodina and the Church… they don’t care as their Pro-Life fantasies addle their brains.
