Allow me to quote St. John Chrysostom

Thank you for the quote, and for the icon earlier, of this wonderful man. As an Orthodox Christian, every Sunday I participate in the celebration of the Liturgy he created.

General question - What is the purpose of the "Catholic Caucus"? Is it for general discussion of Catholic spirituality, or is it more targeted to discussing how to address Catholic current events? In either case, is Orthodox participation welcome, or should I stick to the more "ecumenical" threads? Thanks, and Christ Bless!

Regarding the purpose of the Catholic Caucus, I asked a similar question earlier in the thread. In post #36 part of history_matters' reply was, "(1)to fend off false attacks on the Catholic Church, (2) to support each other during a time of crisis and to continue to be a clear Catholic voice in any conservaitve discussion, (3)and to present the truth about the Lord and Holy Mother Church without reservation and with courage"

Wordsmith, you and your fellow Orthodox (anyone really) are always welcome on our threads. These threads are for community, not exclusivity. God bless you.

You’re welcome. He is one of my favorites.

Of course you are welcome on this and all Catholic threads. I also appreciate your defending the Blessed Virgin Mary on the Neverending thread. There is much misunderstanding going on over there.
