jeffpugh Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I see what you mean. The initial idea is what I got from your previous post, but you really fleshed it out. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N/A Gone Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 As a non-flagged all of my statements need an astrix. but I love the encouragement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudate_Dominum Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 On another note does anyone have a favorite Orthodox theologian or two? I'm thinking mainly of modern theologians but any will do. I'm just curious. I haven't read as much as I would like but at this point I am partial to Florovsky and Lossky and I'm quite fond of Schmemann's books. I would like to study Bulgakov but I'm a little scared.

qfnol31 Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 I really want to read [i]The Way of a Pilgrim[/i]. I have it, I just need to read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaHilarious Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 [quote name='Revprodeji' post='1445373' date='Jan 13 2008, 03:18 PM']Papa, that is a sad site with sad words, but that is not the majority view of the greek church. In the same way as every group of people has some idiots we need to understand that we do and so do they. We have said negative things about the east, and the east has said negative stuff on us. We have tried to make them latin by almost erasing their traditions which are apostolic and should be a part of our faith as well. Because they see this constant threat of assimulation they defend against that. There is so much pain this this struggle.[/quote] Well-said. I just wish that site would stop popping up first every time I google Eastern Fathers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N/A Gone Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I do not see that site as entirely negative myself. But, interesting enough I googled "eastern fathers" and the website in question did not come up until the bottom of the 8th page.

N/A Gone Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I love TODD. I want to be his groupie. I love reading his writings. Him and L_D should just get people to sit near a pond and talk all day. I would bring some bottled water and a blanket to sit on. I would enjoy that day.

jeffpugh Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Totally. I'd bring a lawn chair and a notepad. Maybe a picnic basket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[i]The Master and Margarita[/i] is one of my favorite books. It absolutely forces a reader to think. Bulgakov was a brilliant satirist. Just thought I would share. Okay, back on topic.
