What's the EP doing that's provoking this reaction? I couldn't understand that last paragraph in the article.
Nothing really new here, except that the MP is fairly healthy again. The EP has not been really helpful to the cause of Orthodox unity since the patriarchate of Meletius (of sorrowful memory), who foisted the New Calendar on the Church, and worse, broke the canonical unity of the Church in North America by establishing the Greek Archdiocese.
(And no, I'm not an Old Calendarist--I just messing with the calendar without complete concensus was a lousy idea. Personally, I like the Coptic proposal to restore the unity of all Christian confessions' calendars by returning to the exact terms mandated by the Council of Nicaea for the Paschalion, and using the most astronomically accurate calendar as the basis the fixed feasts and for the computations of the date of Pascha--that would now be the civil calenda. It would restore the spirit of the decision to adopt the Julian calendar = civil calendar, back in the days of the Empire, because it was the civil calendar.)
