He and I have discussed theological matters for years here and have never, to the best of my knowledge, ever had anything less than complete respect for each other.

I would agree.

Kolo I haven't seen you on the RC propaganda threads lately it has become the regular practice there to rewrite the comments of Evangelicals. It has become so common that it is now a trigger point.

Holy Tradition, as opposed to tradition, is a term used by The Church to designate something other than simple tradition.

I wish the EO and the RC's could see how easily they've been manipulated just by the use of the term "holy". There is nothing "holy" in going outside God's revelation to us and making up your faith as you go.

Oh, I can't resist this one. wf, we Orthodox are so leery of anything called "holy" that you couldn't even imagine it. One of our favorite jabs at religious phonies in a parish is to call them "the holy people of God"! And remember, we're the one's to regularly remind our "holy hierarchs" that the floor of hell is paved with the skulls of bishops!

A Happy and Blessed New Year to you, my friends!
