Father Andrey Tkachov is famous for his direct style. We had the pleasure of hosting Father Andrey for a lecture a few weeks ago. We had over 180 people show up to hear him speak for an hour with no notes. Everyone was captivated. After he spoke, he answered questions for another 2 hours or so. I admire him greatly. He is a gifted preacher, produces a lot of video for TV and his YouTube channel, and it seems he publishes another book every two months! Thanks be to God for such priests!
And here Fr. Tkachev tells it's ok to beat your wife http://www.pravmir.ru/nuzhno-zhenshhinu-lomat-ob-koleno-protoierey-andrey-tkachev-obyasnil-svoyu-skandalnuyu-rech/
This does seem...noteworthy, if he really did say this. People criticize the Koran by saying it approves of wife-beating. Do you really want to defend or excuse it here?
Yes, the biggest problem around here is all these Russia worshipers do not understand Russian language and their knowledge about Russia is only limited to those pieces of propaganda they are fed with.
Even if someone says something that may be wrong (I don't know Russian and I'm not judging a link based on bad Google Translate), that doesn't diminish when they say something right. This sermon is right.
When a priest (or any other public person) abhorrent he should be shunned by his superiors and not being promoted instead. No matter what he says on other issues.
This is sadly part of a very common occurrence in Kosovo. Vandals enter churches, set them on fire, then they urinate and defecate in them. ...
"The World is trying the experiment of attempting to form a civilized but non-Christian mentality. The experiment will fail; but we must be very patient in awaiting its collapse; meanwhile redeeming the time: so that the Faith may be preserved alive through the dark ages before us; to renew and rebuild civilization, and save the World from suicide."

What a holy man!
You seem so displeased with everything posted here, it's a wonder you keep coming back.
DeleteI'm not displeased. Rather, I'm entertained.
DeleteHe just knee-jerks against anything Russian. Pay him no mind.
DeleteDo you also believe beating your wife is all right?
DeleteMike consistently takes refuge in the classic ad hominem attack.
DeleteFather, this is such an excellent, succinct sermon. I shared it on my blog too.
