I have heard that Prostants converting to Orthodoxy is a big trend now in theological circles. People fed up with how liberal mainline protestants have become, but cannot quite bring themselves to become Catholic, become Orthodox.</> A big trend? I don't think so. The problem is the same as it has always been - the Bible has all one needs - John says "You have no need of teachers with the Holy Spirit". Yet everyone wants a "religion' that makes them feel good - instead of one that communcates the soverignity and holiness of God - which often is "too much" for many. This guy is no exception - as he says himself he fell in love with "the liturgical life of Christianity's most ancient body." As for me, I choose to focus on Christ, not religion, church or "liturgical life".
