I have never seen such a thing! Is it Catholic (as in not Orthodox)?

Neither have I, kolo mou, but I thought you'd get the same jolt as I did. :)

It's Ukrainian "Greek"-Catholic. Pretty scary, hey? :)

“Pretty scary, hey? :) “

Yes, Kosta mou, it is. It speaks volumes about the chasm which exists between us and the Eastern Rite Catholics in communion with Rome. At least the Latins have the perfectly valid point that their sacred art works are not icons and don’t pretend to be. This melding of Eastern and Western just doesn’t work, not in Ukraine or Greece or Serbia or Russia or anywhere.

Are you saying that you guys need us as much as we need you?
