All Ukraine, all the time.

As you may have noticed, the back and forth between various ecclesial bodies in Ukraine spurred by the Baptism of Kievan Rus celebration has gotten out of hand. I am reading some 20-30 articles on the jockeying for position, insults, and proclamations made from all sides daily. Unless someone says something so egregious it cannot be ignored or something substantive (and hopefully positive) occurs, I'm not going to post on it. I am truly saddened to see all this bickering not only by the Churches themselves, but also by media outlets and some bloggers who have resorted to vituperative name calling and sabre rattling.

  1. I hope that none of my comments have added to your anxieties and stress. I feel strongly, but do my best to speak in charity... Like all sinners, I fail at that last part sometimes.
