This is really a beautiful post. I feel so lucky to have been raised cradle Orthodox. Everything in this post resonates so true to me.
This was a pretty interesting thread, and then suddenly it’s like someone left a window open and Satan’s flying monkeys came in and have infiltrated the place and started throwing their feces everywhere. It’s to the point I can’t even read the FR Prots’ poste anymore without feeling like I need a shower afterward. It’s very sad :(
