Robert Keating Smith from the Anglican web site whose link is above clearly states that the men in question championed EASTERN ORTHODOX Christian principals. Since the Anglicans also say these men and movements were a rejection of Latin Christianity in favor of the Greek rite they qualify for Orthodox sainthood.

What he didn’t champion was evidence for you two statements:

1) “This is laid the groundwork for the resentment that long simmered against the Latin church.”

and

2) “Moravians fought to return to the ‘eastern Greek rite’.”

Oh, and Nikas, I want you to look at this and tell me what it proves:

You completely ignored it so far this morning. Gee, I wonder why?

Tell us what it all means, Nikas. Okay?

“Since the Anglicans also say these men and movements were a rejection of Latin Christianity in favor of the Greek rite they qualify for Orthodox sainthood.”

What? 1) Who are the Anglicans to decide who can become an Orthodox saint? Seriously, that’s like saying Swedish Lutherans get to decide who becomes a Chaldean Catholic saint. How do you figure that? 2) That still doesn’t address the two statements you have repeatedly dodged posting evidence for. Here they are again:

1) “This is laid the groundwork for the resentment that long simmered against the Latin church.”

and

2) “Moravians fought to return to the ‘eastern Greek rite’.”
