Sir,

I do not mean to be disrespectful to you, but I have yet to have a meaningful dialogue with a Roman Catholic apologist on this forum. You make several statements which you assume I accept: that is not the case. For one, I do not accept that the MP has grace, and that its synod, going back to Met. Sergius were legitimate bishops. There are many canons which support this view and up to a few years ago they were quoted by theologians in the Church Abroad. The MP bishops were appointed by the KGB and I view them as nothing but KGB agents in cassocks. They persecuted THE Church which went into the catacombs.

As for your comparison to RC bishops, again I have a different take. I view your bishops as nothing more than power hungry Western heretics and not legitimate bishops at all. I have no interest in them, or in anything they do or say. Thus, I don't really care to comment on anything they did.

Perhaps you can shed some light onto why the Eastern Orthodox Churches became agents and collaborators with Muslim Ottomans and Atheist Soviets?

Is this a historical pattern?
