While we respect our Orthodox leaders we should never forget that they are men and some of them are very ambitious.

I am following what is happening with the situation in Greece at the moment, and it is disgusting the way these bishops are not even waiting for Christodoulos to die, if that is God's will for him. There is nothing Christian in their actions - it is all about ambition, glory on earth, and wealth.

Christ himself drove the moneylenders from the temple.

Christ is the head of our church, not archbishops etc.

Sadly, being a priest is only a profession to some people here. There are wonderful priests who have been "promoted" - the departed Metropolitan of Siatista Antonios, a saintly person, friend of Elder Paisios, and deeply mourned by all of Siatista (an ancient city near Kozani) was one such person.
