“wonderfully moderate, accepting faith.”

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

You are confusing political terms with theological ones.

the patristic path of moderation, a mean between extremes; this is what the Holy Fathers call the ROYAL PATH.

The teaching of this "royal path" is set forth, for example, in the tenth of St. Abba Dorotheus' Spiritual lnstructions, where he quotes especially the Book of Deuteronomy: Ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left, but go by the royal path (Deut. 5:32, 17:11)

Sorry, but I'm half Greek, and Greek Orthodox is hardly accepting of the deviances this Hollywood crowd celebrates.

Their idea of religion mirrors that of the group Moses found at the base of Sinai dancing around the Golden Calf.

“wonderfully moderate, accepting faith.”

Seems like she has a very loose grasp of Orthodoxy. While I concur with “accepting faith” in the sense of having open arms to all sinners, I would definitely not call the OC wonderfully moderate. It’s anything but. As for “accepting”, definitely also not, if she means “tolerant” in the PC sense. Maybe the OC has a loony/lite parish in Hollywood for those that can’t see past the end of their noses. Although I hope that’s not the case.

At least she’s a Christian and not a Gaia worshipping Wiccan. In Hollywood that’s probably the best you can hope for.
