Patriarch Bartholomew sent a delegation to Ukraine to see about bringing the UOC, temporarily, under his omophorion, whatever that means. Emmanuel of Chalcedon, Archbishop Elpidophoros, and Metropolitan Tikhon are involved somehow. Something about a teensy bit of time as an exarchate. Hasn’t he done enough? That this is coming at the conclusion of the war […]
The “Dream On” Tax Coming to a City Near You
If you needed someone to watch your children, would you hire someone you didn’t know? Someone with whom you had no connection? Someone unknown by your family and friends. Someone without recommendations, and outside a regulated childcare agency? What if they didn’t speak English or even have an address? No work history you could validate. […]
It Was a Shocking Day
The DOJ claims “Trump directly and repeatedly asked the DOJ’s acting leadership to initiate investigations and file lawsuits on his behalf publicly declaring the 2020 election was corrupt.” Hmm. . . I wonder why he would do that, if that indeed happened. Any time you read so many pejorative words, it’s hard to give credence […]
Archbishop Elpidophoros’ Misplaced Priorities
[Editor’s note: Every now and then, Gail and I receive an article for submission from you, our readers. This is one such article. It was written by a man named Peter who is a Greek-American and is concerned about the trajectory of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese. We hope you take the time to read it and […]

In the news. . . By Solcyré Burga July 15, 2022 7:29 PM EDT The case of a 10-year-old girl who had to travel from her home in Ohio to Indiana to receive an abortion after being raped has become national news—and a major political issue following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. The […]
Finish the Story
As we have been saying for quite awhile now, we are not living in ordinary times. In fact, they’re quite tumultuous. Dangerously so. As a nation (a civilization even), we are at an historical inflection point. One can feel it. The upcoming election (if it proceeds) will be one for “all the marbles.” No two […]
The Light of the World
An Orthodox Kurdish priest (our own Father Madai) baptizes a Yazidi. May the Lord bless Father Madai’s ministry and this newly-enlightened man! https://www.facebook.com/reel/1280217009634609
Would I Lie to You, Baby? Nope.
Movie: The Greatest Show on Earth 2 You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to know that things are dangerously out of whack. Very little of what we see makes any sense. It’s like we’ve reached maximum chaos. Honestly, if anybody can shed some light on who is actually running the country, I’m all […]
The Agent of Change
I have been thinking a lot about politics these days. (And religion, culture, the future, etc.) Who hasn’t? Don’t blame yourself. You ever heard of the October Surprise? That’s a political trick that one party plays usually on the Thursday right before the election. They do that for maximum impact. Sometimes it works, sometimes it […]
Some Thoughts about the Present Situation
by Gail Sheppard [Editor’s note: As some of you know, George has to post for me because I get some stupid 503 error every time I try to do it myself. I know you all are experiencing some wonky problems too. We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know. It is so […]
