"Its heresy to deny the sacraments of the Orthodox Church. In particular, they are denying the Real Presence in the Eucharist."

I don't know where you got that from, but the Fathers clearly admitted that the Greeks have valid orders and the Mass.

"They may retain valid orders and the Mass — things which Protestantism lost ".

Source: 307. How does the Greek Church differ from the Catholic Church?

“I don’t know where you got that from, but the Fathers clearly admitted that the Greeks have valid orders and the Mass.”

Gonzo, think about what these clerics are saying. Orthodoxy is not Apostolic. Their “Mass” and Orders are valid. Gonzo, that’s theologically and ecclesiologically impossible. They are not just heretics from an Orthodox pov, they are from a Latin one too...and the crowned head who gave them an imprimatur was a disgrace, though I doubt Rome ever did anything about him.

Once again, why do you post this tripe?
