[Nihil Obstat]

The difference with the Catholic Church is that these people are honest enough with themselves to leave off the practice of a faith in which they no longer believe, rather than attempting in their hubris to "change" the Orthodox Church from within

Do you think the "Catholic" (cino) colleges have a lot to do with that too? Seems like the liberal elitists cling to colleges and infect and spread dissent to the next generation.

Since the Orthodox don't have much of a higher education system here, they are spared those leeches. (At least in the US.) But I will bet they have that problem in the old countries.

[The_Reader_David]

Probably not much of a problem in the old country, except possibly for Greece, and maybe the Patriachates of Antioch and Alexandria. Everywhere else, communism served as a strong innoculation against all the rot of modernity.
