It’s well known that the Orthodox churches already permit divorced people who have not received an annulment to remarry in the Church. That is how they’ve abandoned the Lord’s teaching regarding marriage.
Perhaps you should look into that a little before posting snide comments.
I used to be roman catholic. I meant my original post in good humor.
But if you wish to cast stones, the hilarity of the so-called annulment process in the RC Church isn’t just an affront to marriage as a sacrament, but seems a lie to God. How many annulments did your church give Ted Kennedy? 5? 6? You lie to yourselves and make bastards of innocent children from VALID marriages and draw halos on your heads, hiding behind your self-made canon law.
Getting divorced and remarried in the Serbian Orthodox Church is not easy as you seem to think. The participants are excommunicated for a year in the service itself,no crowning takes place and the readings are about death, sin and potential forgiveness. That is IF the hierarchs allow it. If children are affected it becomes much more difficult.
Yes, Greeks allow much, but that is due to the amount of Latinization their hierarchs have imposed. They took their lax cue from your church.
Divorce is not good. St. Epiphanius in the 5th Century discussed divorce, which matches the current position of Orthodox Church. It is tolerated and has been so since the beginning of Christian records.
But then I’m the one who talked without knowing anything.
