What I was saying is that in sociological sense Orthodoxy is a religion for despotisms. Thus, regardless of doctriinal and indeed of ANY other parameters, no reunion with such is either feasible or desirable for those who would like to represent free societies.

Please forgive me though I ask some Orthodox FRiends to respond to this. From where I see things it may not be an unfair question, given the "ethnic" element often attributed to Orthodox churches (might we someday see an "American Orthodox" church")...
