I like (perhaps too much) the prayer “pacify the ragings of the pagans” in the Liturgy of St. Basil. You can guess which “pagans” I’m thinking of!!!!
Back in 1999, I (then a Lutheran) marched with my Serbian Christian brothers and sisters against clinton’s war every Saturday afternoon from March 24 into June, except for Western Holy Saturday. This put me on the road that led to my reception into Orthodoxy on Lazarus Saturday of last year.
I saw plenty of Greek flags at those marches, and I many a time held an American flag. Not all of us dishonored our flag by supporting clinton and the rest of the anti-Christian imperialists in both parties.
