Ping Fr. Ambrose - Stop gossiping about me on Celt List
Madam
*you*. I called your archbishop twice to report your gossip. Do I need
to tell Despota to call your archbishop? I think I will. I posted a
message to Celt that I want you to post, then I want you to email me
and let me know you posted it and then I want you to remove me. Can
you do that for me? Thanks.
You are doing the exact same thing that Fr. Isidore HATES. Do you get
it?
I feel sorry for Fr. Isidore. He has been weakened by his alcoholism.
I hope he has finally hit bottom. This is insanity, for him and for me.

Since I have not shown the MVPD any of your messages yet, but the
identifying email from a friend regarding you, and I have others by
the way, I will speak to you. You are the malicious one, that is what
my priesthood told me. I am going to speak for him. He is a simple
man, and a monk and a priest and Meesoon Shirley Chong is a sadistic
fem domme. Fr. Isidore doesn't know a damn thing about sadomasochism
or fem dommes for that matter. Meesoon Shirley Chong is perverting
him. Now DD says today BN is my bf, so I am writing this for him,
trying to provoke his protective instincts. I hope BN writes to
Meesoon Shirley Chong and chews her head off. I know he inquires after
women who write about his clergy in other groups. BN has two MBAs and
worked as the director for Family Support Services for the state of
Nevada so I know he could get Meesoon Shirley Chong if he wanted to
and I hope he does. . He should shut her down, and you too. I am pure
as the rain that is falling today. I went from Eastern Orthodox
marriage to celibacy. How dare you defame me. I am going to be adding
that message to my new case at the MVPD so I might not be able to
write to you anymore after that. Your day is coming Troia AKA ... I
will shut you down.
Fr. Isidore has lost nothing but his ego and his false pride, which is
a good thing. He is still a priest, and that is what is most important
to him, and he will not lose that.

Are you meaning that message from "Bishop" Christodoolos who belongs
to a dissident group which tears at the seamless robe of Christ? Why
does all this fragmentation of Orthodoxy seem to be concentrated in
the States? <sigh>
I thought it was directed at Nathaniel. Have you not seen his article
on his website about John Michalakis (aka Bishop Christodoulos)?
Are you not aware of your own Church's judgement of this "Bishop"?
Why not "Ask Vladyka" on the OCA Alaskan website? I am sure he will
tell you to flee from false hierarchs.

Dear list kin,
What other groups have dubbed the Olympiada Circus is sometimes

Please, if your posts do not have some connection with Celtic

It's much quicker for you to remove yourself.
Unsubscribe details are at the bottom of every message you receive

Since you have aleady done this about 10 times, you will be able to do

Here is somthing posted on Nathaniel's site. It would be this that
concerns "Bishop" Christodolos.
"The scandals involving the ordinations of both titular Bp
Christodoulos," says an observer from Greece, "and Father Niphon, have
come to the attention of the GOC Synod in Athens," continued the
observer. "Bp Christodoulos directed and acted in X rated films prior
to being ordained by Met Paul; Fr Niphon, the Abbot of Astoria's
Ascension Monastery, got a girl pregnant before being ordained by Met
Paul."
http://sbn-nathanael.livejournal.com/
Earler entries on Nathaniel's site have further news of the bishop's
films, including links to film sites which rate them and discuss them.

Despota as well. Vladyka Nikolai and I are not getting along right now.
DD thinks he is my bf. He is not. In addition, Vladyka Nikolai is too
busy to answer my questions. I already told Despota last night that my
priest would tell me to flee from false hierarchs. I got on Despota's
case about his choice of best female friends, told him it didn't look
good. I dislike him.

Yes, the site is putrid but it gave some information on this film
maker turned dissident bishop.
Nobody denies that genuine metanoia is possible for all of us sinners
but they ought not to be elevated to the episcopate. It seems to
contradict the Pauline requirement for the character of a candidate
for bishop.
Something about the bishop - secular name: John Elias Michalakis (aka
John Michaels aka Bishop Christodoulos)

Oly, you were forbidden by Fr Isidore to speak about him.
And how awful it must be for Bishop Nikolai that you continue to speak
ill of his protege on the Net. Bishop Nikolai raised him to be the
highest ranking priest in the OCA - a mitred archimandrite. Now you
rubbish him in a heinous fashion and his mentor Bishop Nikolai and all
the bishops of OCA.

I wonder how your daughter ever got the idea that -anyone- would have
bishops for "bf"s (boyfriends).
Have you not explained to her that trying to make a "bf" of a Bishop is,
to say the least, deliberately distracting him from his vocation?

You hope Nikolai "gets" Shirley? And just how would you hope he would
"get" Shirley?
And since she's not raising any children at this time, exactly what
connection is there to "Family Support Services"?

You know what? I am not pleased with BN either. I am not speaking ill

rubbishing him. I say that we all stop talking about him on Usenet
period, that means each and everyone one of us, right now, but that's
not going to happen. Some people feel they can name whomever they want
in public with impunity. They are the ones that need to get silenced,
especially when they are not even Christians let alone Eastern

to be a separate old calendarist Greek communiyt in New York (which I am

Oh, ok, I have actually seen these guys. A son and I rolled by the
Clearwater church (both of us like St. Nektarios a lot) the last time we
were down in the area. We asked around, because they emphasize their
old calendar adherence. Local Russian Orthodox population was general
favorable toward that particular parish.
Uh, wait a minute. These guys I THOUGHT were taken back into the
GOA???? St. Markella's is still in their list!!! OK, what's up?

All we have are his words to the Indiana List. Thousands of Irish
converts fled the OCA and went to ROCA which has a proper veneration
of Saint Patrick and a Service (Vigil and Liturgy) to Saint Patrick in
Slavonic approved by the Synod of Bishops in the 1970s. Written by
the late Valeria Hoecke, God rest her.

same. Do you know what he is doing these days? Somebody asked me during
the fellowship today and I could not tell that person. Actually two
people asked after him. I only imagine he is working on his memoirs and
this other writing projects that he had putting me off. Perhaps he might
wish to post an update on the Indiana list for those who are interested
in what he is doing. If not you could ask him to post it to Orthodox
Jurisdictions and ask him if you could forward me a copy. Of course, I
always encourage everyone who asks me to write to him them self. I don't
think they do. They get discouraged when I don't know anything about him
and give up. :(

OK, clicking on the underlying registry gives the same info as part one.
So, what is the point? It is a Greek old calendar jurisdiction with
churches across the US. It has a Greek webmaster with an IP in Beverly
Hills, California, where there are a sufficient number of Greek old
calendarists (there are a number of old calendar Greek and
Greek/American parishes of some size on the west coast) and the guy who
provides web mastering has a pizza parlor as his day job.

Perhaps the non-veneration of Saint Patrick is restricted to the OCA
Diocese of the West. Retired Bishop Tikhon was a stickler for the
Menaion and Saint Patrick is not in there.

Bishop Tikhon was quite clear that he authorised no services to Saint
Patrick in his diocese because he is not included in the Menaion.
I am not speaking for your diocese. Your (ex) bishop was speaking for
his diocese. You seem to think that *you* can speak for the bishop?
Madam
Saint Patrick on the wall. I have a photograph in my archives. I know
how my X bishop thinks, believe me. I can not speak for the bishop. You
are the one who brought it up on your list. Frankly, I don't care. St.
Patrick is inconsequential to me as well, so I am with my X bishop on
this one. I don't think anyone can speak for the bishop. He couldn't
even keep a secretary around. He is a VERY private man, perhaps the most
private man I have ever met. Everyone knows he is a very private man,
that is his reputation. I think its time we table the discussion on my X
bishop and the menaion. I am not getting anything out of it, are you? It
just makes me sad to talk about my X bishop. I would rather not. He is
dead to me.

Isidore and might be able to help him. Please read this message and come
help if you can. I have failed Fr. Isidore and am now being blamed for
Fr. Isidore's failings in return.
