Antiochian Orthodox - out

What if the Orthodox held a council and no one came?

Assuming, as appears to be case, that there is no urgent need for a Council, then I'd say the Holy Spirit may well be at work here. We shall see what comes of this. My guess is that there will eventually be a meeting of some kind. But not until some serious issues are addressed. Antioch has very real and legitimate grievances with one of its sister churches and some of the proposed documents are seriously flawed in their wording. Other concerns raised seem rather trivial to me. But IMHO those two are going to have to be addressed before this thing goes forward. A short delay of six months or so to allow for fixes does not seem unreasonable.
