“wonderfully moderate, accepting faith.”

So is she a leftist like her hubby? Is that “Orthodox”?

Q: “What is the divine for you?”

A: “I sense the divine in the goodness that I see in people—their acts of kindness, their acts of selflessness; those people inspire me.”

What a nice exchange. But too bad both of these women have such little knowledge of the Christian faith.

Isn’t this discourse more representative of “humanism”?

Given that the Eastern lung of the Church does not allow female ordination and presumably has the same moral strictures against abortion and homosexuality that the Western (Catholic) lung has, why do the Orthodox get a pass from the enlightened liberal elite (”moderate,” “welcoming”) when the Catholic Church is constantly excoriated by liberals?

I had no idea that “Greek Orhodox” and “Born Again” were mutually exclusive.

She sounds like a liberal nut-job to me. Too bad.

-saying stuff like “the re-born Christian thing is based on fear...” -and then goes on about her greek orthodoxy allowing ‘acceptance’...

Translation: I wanna be able to do WHATEVER I wanna do, live HOWEVER I wanna live and not feel guilty when it’s wrong. BUT, I want fire insurance at the end of life...

She is the big lefty in the family, constantly driving Tom further to the left. Still kind of easy on the eyes though.

Do you think she observes the strict Orthodox lent?

I find that very hard to believe.

Quote: “I find the Greek Orthodox Church a sort of a wonderfully moderate, accepting faith.”

Oh, there would be sooooo many Greek saints rolling in their graves...if they weren’t already in heaven.

Wilson was born Margarita Ibrahimova in Los Angeles, California. Her father, a Pomak (Muslim Bulgarian)[2] who worked at a racetrack, was born in Greece; he later converted to Orthodoxy. Before emigrating to the U.S., he had lived in Bulgaria and Turkey
