I did a google search of ‘Orthodox Christian leader of the world’ - came up with only the fox piece and this post. Nothing else. I think the AP writer is delusional. LOL
Hrm? You’re plainly ignorant. The leader of the Orthodox world is the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople - who will be attending Pope Francis’ installation mass.

This fellow here.
My goodness did you see when Francis got out of his jeep and went to bless the disabled man, the people were holding up. Put a chill up my spine even now thinking about it.
