    JF - Christ is Risen, Y'all! Would you please remove my blog Cometh at Midnight? I have not updated it for ages and I don't want to leave a poor pathetic abandoned blog on your links list that will just encourage someone to click on it expecting updated and edifying content. Muchos gracias!

    oooh I forgot something. Can you add the blog of a new convert that I recently stumbled on? It's called Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog (and then he became Orthodox). Quite a mouthful but he's got an interesting blog and works a lot of Tolkien into his posts. That's got to be worth a read.

    I'm not tech-inclined, so I was using the formula "Description" to make them active links, unfortunately this was not allowed as I got an HTML error saying that the attribute "FOR" was not allowed. Where was my mistake?

    I believe many readers on the Internet may want to read a blog called Theology and Society, because it provides current articles and commentaries on a variety of religious topics.

    Readers can access it @ theologyandsociety.blogspot.com.

    I don't believe he's Orthodox (nor am I, but doesn't stop me from loving and blogging about it) but Michael Landsman is a scholar and a cigar lover who has a great understanding of the Church Fathers (http://yearsofmysojourning.wordpress.com/)

    The priest who runs this loves poetry and doesn't update his blog enough: http://janotec.typepad.com/terrace/ as of right now he's going through Athanatius and commenting. Really fun to read for an ex-aspiring theologian.

    Orthodox Northwest, because I'm homesick: http://orthodoxnorthwest.wordpress.com/

    Also, not Orthodox, but Christian Historian Rachel Fulton is my former professor and a lover of Tolkien, Fencing, and still has time to be one of the preeminent experts on monasticism. She blogs at http://fencingbearatprayer.blogspot.com/ and http://medievalmorality.blogspot.com/

    I'm a little biased because she's my wife, but I love to read her blog. It's mostly reflections on life as a stay at home mom and as an Orthodox Christian

Sr. Vassa: There's no ontological impediment to priestesses

Image
Is the male-only priesthood a discipline or essential to the nature of being a priest? Sr. Vassa (again unflinchingly taking up a contentious topic by climbing up the ladder to the highest platform and then jumping into the deep end head first) dives right in and says there is no reason beyond personal preference to not have female clergy. You know, when people ask me about women in priesthood, they say, 'Sister, why can't women be priests?' And I say, 'Women CAN be priests. We don't WANT them to be priests.' Because you see, God can do anything, and the Church, by divine authority, uh, can do anything, but, the Church doesn't want to - and that's a legitimate reason. What I don't like is when we TRY to pretend that there are other reasons for this, because it's legitimate not to want something, and there are reasons not to want this - right? - but, we shouldn't pretent that there's some... reason, that, for example, the maleness...

OCA takes strong stand for canonical Orthodoxy

( Orthochristian.com ) - The primate of the Orthodox Church in America, His Beatitude Metropolitan Tikhon of Washington and All America and Canada, will concelebrate with the primate of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry of Kiev and All Ukraine, in western Ukraine later this week. The Ukrainian Orthodox Diocese of Chernivtsi and Bukovina “awaits the visit of the primate of the Orthodox Church in America on June 1–2, 2024. Solemn services will be held in the Cathedral of the Descent of the Holy Spirit in Chernivtsi, with the participation of both primates.” The Holy Synod of the Orthodox Church in America formally rejects communion with the schismatics of the “Orthodox Church in Ukraine,” recognizing only the canonical UOC under Met. Onuphry. The Ukrainian primate was the honored guest at the OCA’s 18th All-American Council in July 2015.

A Response to “On administering Holy Communion in a Time of a Plague”

This was sent to me and deserves a read. You can read the Calivas article here . We can all agree that we are living in unusual times. However, the nature and extent of the illness that we face, and the proper response of the Church, is a matter of much disagreement. We have seen various responses to the COVID-19 epidemic: calls to close our Churches as infectious vectors, and demands to open them as places of spiritual healing. Directives a) ordering the cessation of sacramental life as part of an effort to “flatten the curve,” and cries for access to the divine grace that flows forth from those very mysteries; b) calling for the restriction of “at-risk persons,” and serious questions about the validity of such controls, c) instructions to liturgists to wear personal protective equipment during the celebration of the divine services and the distribution of the holy Mysteries, and uncertainty about the fitness of such practices. Who has been championing what and on behalf of whom? The ...
