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!
Actually I can. Your church stopped organizationally with the metropolitans and as a result your leaders are viewed as a group of patriarchs equal in rank. The RCC went further and produced a papal monarchy.
