Ukraine - War on Homer Sin -
03-08-2022, 09:20 AM
The history of the Russian Orthodox Church - is a little byzantine.
While the old Roman Empire was being over run with barbarians, the remains of the empire managed to survive in the East - Constantinople, and what remained of the original "Christian" church (i.e. cathylicks). For awhile it survived and even prospered - building the largest church at the time, the Hagia Sophia. Ultimately it fell to a number of forces, including the Persians and mooselimbs.
The Russian Orthodox Church often claims that it is the successor to the original cathylicks, moving from the East to Ukraine, and ultimately to Moscow. They even survived the atheist communists - a notable achievement, but ultimately they're still cathylicks - not Baptists.
You have to hand it to them though - they are fighting a war on homer sin.

Russian Orthodox Church leader: Ukraine invasion a justified war against gay pride
By Victor Morton - The Washington Times - Monday, March 7, 2022
The leader of the Russian Orthodox Church said his country’s invasion of Ukraine was a divine mission in opposition to gay rights.
According to a Monday report in the Moscow Times, Patriarch Kirill backed Russia’s “military operation” in Ukraine and called it a conflict over “which side of God humanity will be on.”
He drew attention to Ukraine's gay-pride parades and pro-LGBT laws, and called them a “loyalty test” and an example of Ukraine’s attempting to refashion itself in the cultural image of NATO nations.
“Pride parades are designed to demonstrate that sin is one variation of human behavior. That’s why in order to join the club of those countries, you have to have a gay pride parade,” he said in his sermon for Forgiveness Sunday, the last Sunday before the start of Lent in the Orthodox calendar.
“We know that if people or countries reject these demands, they are not part of that world, they become strangers to it,” Kirill said.
But, he noted, Russia and the breakaway regions of eastern Ukraine, which de facto broke away from Ukraine in 2014 and run by pro-Russia separatists, have “fundamentally rejected” those tests.
“For eight years there have been attempts to destroy what exists in Donbas,” Kirill said. “In Donbas there is a rejection, a fundamental rejection of the so-called values that are offered today by those who claim world power.”
The Russian church leader also resorted to apocalyptic language of civilizational clashes to describe the war, saying it was “far more important than politics.”
“If humanity accepts that sin is not a violation of God’s law, if humanity accepts that sin is a variation of human behavior, then human civilization will end there,” he said.

A fraternal dispute of this type is better understood when assessed in light of recent history, recent in this case being more recent than Julius Caesar (or any other Caesar) from whom the title "Csar" or "Czar" (sometimes "Tsar" or Tzar" depending on letters available in your alphabet from time to time) is derived. From time to time in this case means at various points during the first or second millennia After Caesar, alphabets from earlier dates, i.e. Before Caesar, being irrelevant. Dates approximated to the nearest century would be adequate and we're looking at the nineteenth century in this case.

Alexander III is of particular interest and I noted you mentioned The Patriarch Kirill, especially pertinent I thought given his recent sermon.
Here is a picture of The Patriarch Kirill.

A bit of a preamble – and pictures of Alexander III's coronation are available with a quick search including details from Georges Becker's outstanding portrait, really a series of portraits all in one. Continuity is so important in affairs of State, governments come and go after all, and I noticed in the large painting there are a couple of groups of clergy to the left and to the right (foreground, either side of the carpet) details as follow:

The coronation was in 1883 and I thought I saw some familiar faces. Details are available, again you need to have some idea what you're looking for but now you do and can check out other characters at your leisure. Comparison with photographs from the same period will give you some idea how accurate the portraits are (very) but in the meantime here's a better look at both groups.
LEFT GROUP

I hope this is helpful for students of history.

The Russian Orthodox leader is right that if Russia does not defeat Ukraine a barbaric and homer loving branch of Catolics will take over all of Europe. For the sake of civilization, Russian needs to win the war in Ukraine.

Brothers, I am sorry if this observation gives offense, but--this High Priest Krillis or whatever his name is--he may talk the talk against gays but he walks the walk of a runway model.
Those fancy dress clerical garments are just so flamboyant! If these people want to be brought into the fold as real Christians (a needed step in gaining the designation of True Christian™ ) then they have to stop wearing dresses. And the whole jewel-encrusted, matching hats and stoles just screams transvestite. I would not be surprised to learn that they are wearing frilly panties and stiletto heels under those get ups.
Honestly, did Jesus ever wear a hat?
His left hand should be under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.

Indeed, Brother.
This whole situation puts the eastern flank of the European Union in a bit of a pickle. The ruling parties in Poland and Hungary have long been on the right side of history when it comes to gays. Now they have to chose, do they prefer to keep receiving money from the putrid west, or should they join Putin instead?... Their hearts are in the right place, but their souls have already been corrupted by the western way of life (which includes indoor toilets instead of outhouses, technological trinkets, exotic foods, foreign music, etc).
All of them - Poles, Hungarians, Ukrainians - should remember this verse:
2 Peter 2:19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.

Sister, I've come to think Catholics believe the higher the hat the truer the faith. Below is one from the U.S. Catholic Church. It is 14 1/2" high. Pictures of the Russian and Ukrainian Popes look to be higher, maybe 16". This would place them in a higher status than, for example, U.S. Bishops.
But, which is higher, Russian or Ukrainian? When we find out we will know the secret of who will win the war.

Exactly so, dear Sister Handmaiden! I couldn't have said it better myself. For centuries now, those Cathyolick priests, bishops, cardinals and popes have dressed like they've been raiding the closets of their mothers. Why, in this photo, you will see that wearig fancy frocks is not enough to satisfy this old pervert, but he had to steal even the tablecloth from the dining table!
And, in the next photo, if this isn't drag-queen-ism at its very worst, then I don't know what is!
Heaven help us all!

Honestly thought that he was wearing a little teeny clown hat. But that white, pointy thing is part of a building behind him, right?

Those gloves certainly provide some old, Hollywood style glamor. I'm impressed by his restraint in not completing his ensemble with a pair of knock out earrings.

Thank you for pointing out that detail regarding the hat, Dear. Honestly, when I saw it the first time, I thought, "the dunce cap suits him."

Just because the perverted priest is not wearing knock out earrings in the photo does not mean that he does not wear them when in private. Why, I'd be willing to wager (and I am not a betting lady) that he has several jewel cases just stuffed with trinkets of this sort:
And, while he may think that nobody knows what goes on in private, he will learn that even as secretive as he is, the knows all, and all shall be revealed!
Luke 12:2,3:
2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.
3 Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.

If the same guys are in the job for over a century, some ornamentation may be thought beneficial. But have they never heard of humility? The illustrations highlight all this quite well, especially the ones in red—and the gold ones suggest advanced age or it could be their nepots, whatever—and here's a side view of the lace tablecloth parade:
From this angle you can see there's more than one of them. Now I don't think they get their fabric from a reject batch on clearance at a foreign umbrella factory. (From experience I happen to know this is a very budget-friendly material.) Any passing glance at their accommodation, a good two steps up from your standard or garden variety palace, not to mention their work stations, suggests that artisanal Ghent lace or that stuff from Chantilly [referenced above] would scarcely be adequate and they'd prefer something a bit different.
Of course there's that gold-encrusted look, not to my taste but if it unifies a persecuted caucus I can see where it might have a function, but the Romish splinter group—one of several (dozens?) of orthodox traditions—is trying to update itself isn't it. The various Orthodox denominations do not have a pope (the Egyptian copts do but they're Coptic rather Orthodox) however the Moscow Patriarch is afforded seniority, other than from dissenting clades presumably, and my point here is they can have wives. Although I've never heard of a "Baptist bishop" there may be informal arrangements among some congregations and God is explicit that anyone aspiring to that function must be married.
Titus 1:6-7
The Big Bopper suggests that lace promotes his spending money but the lace and gold encrustation brigade seem to have very one-way pockets. For palaces and gilded columns? Yes. Ruby-adorned emerald & diamond goblets? You bet! Feeding the hungry? Not so much. Under duress maybe the odd scrap but we were thinking about an updated look to bring them more in line with the 21st century – or even the 20th. Let's face it, if they could make it into 1800s that would be an improvement on what they have going on right now, fashionwise, because let's face it fashion élan is not gonna happen for this bunch. If they were birds, the robes would be their plumage.
Perhaps others have suggestions?

I thought that the whole point of colorful plumage on boy birds was to attract girl birds. So why are the Catholic priests so brightly garish, again?
One immediate way to cut down on alter boy abuse in their church would be to forbid the priests from wearing fancy clothes. The committed homo ones would resign in disgust at being forced to be so basic. . . Don't know how many priests would be left, but the alter boys would be safe.
And speaking of Putin's Holy War on homer sin in Ukraine, the fact that Vlad's clothing is always so understated--to the point of sometimes not being there at all--reassures me that he has no "fancy" tendencies.
His left hand should be under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.

It's Friday and Lent. It's a day to "go without." This is where fish of Friday comes from. Catholics around the world are ordering fresh lobster.

Jesus wants us to be mindful of eternity and right now we're reminded of the cost involved, to bring Christianity where it never was before often against the will of denizens du jour. In the world to come there will be certain joy but for a short time we confront a specific evil with a specific name. Satan.
II Corinthians 4:17 – 5:3 Our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal. For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: if so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
A vibrant persona accompanies that vibrant hope and however sad one may feel in any given moment, there is a way to remember the future in other moments, through laughter. Satan really doesn't like it when you laugh in his face. He may distance himself so he can't see your faces, futile in my opinion when you have vibrant fabric available because however far away he sits he'll always be able to see your clothes.
There are those who'd call dynamic or vivaciously printed fabric "brightly garish" and those are words with meanings rightly applied to false priests and the words of their odious sermons supporting tyranny. Satan is at work there – but I like to remember the summer fashions, not garish but spirited, perhaps? and how they're sometimes dismissed. Even the most tasteless ensemble worn by the least discriminating persona is well short of what these freaks come up with and whether or not the expression you've used is offensive (I would not find it so) or is taken as a compliment COMMENT: Eeeeew!! How brightly garish your outfit is!!! Simply revolting!!!!
PEASANT: (blushing) Why ! Thank you! I thought you hadn't noticed! none of them would want to be associated with Vatican clown shows. Not the costume. Not the person wearing it. However debased, they have standards and are usually consistent. They don't change dogma according to bums on seats (but keep the loot they extorted on the basis of previous doctrines) and stick to their sources of what looks good, even if it doesn't. They will never turn up in muted beige because they think it looks stupid. Popes and their ilk look stupid too but I'm speaking up for the non-popes who'll certainly object to any conflation of the two.
Who knows? One day they could even find the truth about zingy dyestuffs and which pigments look well together in the sunshine. In the meantime we suffer together.

I read with alarm there are U.S. citizens now in Ukraine fighting the Russians. There are entire regiments made up of these volunteers.
I want it known back here in Freehold no Freehold citizen is to be involved with this. Do not volunteer to fight against Russians in Ukraine. Our city needs to stay on good terms with President Trump and his friends around the world. This included, of course, President Putin.
Shame on volunteers who are killing Russian boys.
Who are the Americans who went to fight in Ukraine? (slate.com)

Amen, dear Brother Bryan; and, to Almighty goes the
Even though the Russian Orthodox Church is not blessed like our beloved , at least they are willing to call out sin and name it for what it is.
And, what better evidence of the perversion that exists in Ukraine — including that of their own President — than the evidence, as displayed in this video clip!
