You would be better writing 'orthodox' Christianity rather than 'Orthodox' as the latter expression will be understood by most as Orthodox Christianity, that 300 million strong group headed by Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew. You certainly confused me. | ||||||

Hi Victor, Thanks for the unsolicited advice- though the response was not directed to you:-) I'm not sure why you're confused? Did you read the entire thread? Who is the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew that you refer to? Instead of just jumping in, would you be so kind as to give myself- and thereby the Forum- an idea of where you're coming from? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

I found this. Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, a modern apostle of peace and love, is the head of the world’s second largest and oldest Christian faith community. Based in a Moslem country on the fault-line between East and West, Christianity and Islam, the developed and developing worlds, His All Holiness is, by tradition, the 270th successor to an actual apostle of Jesus Christ, St Andrew, the first-called apostle and brother of St. Peter. The Ecumenical Patriarchate has existed in what was known as Asia Minor, modern-day Turkey, since the fourth century A.D. when Emperor Constantine moved the capital of the Roman Empire to Constantinople (now Istanbul), a city that he built. His All Holiness Bartholomew has led the world’s 300 million Orthodox Christians for 13 years, quietly bringing together major religious leaders and intervening in wars and conflicts and the environmental crisis. http://www.archons.org/patriarchate/holiness.asp WOS |

Hi WOS, Thanks for the info! It just proves I certainly don't know everything:-) I've never heard of EPB if I can call "His All Holiness" that. That's a title I find difficult to grasp as it assumes something that ain't so. I appreciate your research and will check out the link you provided. Thanks too for your continued, solid contributions to this Forum. They are noted. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
