Mark, Alex, this really isn’t news and the monks aren’t sissies. This sort of behavior happens with regularity and has for centuries. We’re not talking polite, tea drinking Anglicans here you know!

I realize this. What I don't understand is why the Armenians and the Greeks can't seem to play nice. I could full well recognize if they were going against the Franciscans -- but I would think that the different Orthodox Churches (note I didn't say Ecclesial Communities) would be able to play nice...especially since Latins aren't involved...

I mean, are the Armenians Nestorians or something??

Play NICE!!!!!!!!!????????? Mark, after all these years hanging around in cyberspace with Orthodoxers and you can still ask a question like this?

“I mean, are the Armenians Nestorians or something??”

Almost worse! Non-Chalcedonian Monophysites! Very bad people except the ones who go to our parish because the nearest Armenian parish is over 100 miles away. And the ones who live in the surrounding towns. And their women, well they are very attractive, lovely dancers and good cooks too! But the rest are very bad people, trust me. Don’t ever buy a rug from one. If they would beat up some poor little Greek “papadakis”, think what they would do to a Latin!

Wow, it seems like the Greeks are as annoyed at the Armenians as the Calvinists are.

(OK, that was a bad joke... I’ll be leaving now.)
