[/quote] And I have a right to make suggestions, as do you. BTW: He doesn't have a right to his opinion when his opinion violates rules of phatmass, which it did. No public criticizing of the mods or moderator actions or decisions. Edited July 3, 2008 by Alycin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely post in controversial threads anymore, and I even limit my theological posting here, because as an Eastern Catholic I would probably get in trouble if I didn't.

[/quote] even Roman Catholics who are more traditional get in trouble sometimes. I'm not talking about really radical, schismatic, uncharitable ones, either.

kujo Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 I started this thread thinking it would last about 3 or 4 posts before getting bounced to the Lame Board. Now it has taken on a life of its own... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am liking it a lot.[/quote] My theology began moving in an Eastern direction back in 1999, but I only began attending Divine Liturgy in August 2003 when I started work on my MA in theology at FUS in Ohio. After attending the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom for about a year and a half I petitioned the Archeparchy of Pittsburgh for a change of ritual Church, and it was granted on Lazarus Saturday 2005. I love the Byzantine tradition, and I feel quite at home in it spiritually. Nevertheless, I'm sure it is not for everyone, but it certainly works for me.
