I think Dillbo spent far more time trying to wiggle into tight spots than out of them.

"The Brits can be very obnoxious it’s true. But Russian yuppies from Moscow and St. Petersburg can really give them a run for their money."

I'd have to agree after recently seeing this video on Liveleak.

God made sex for marriage to be enjoyed in private and not publicly profaned and used as a rebellious symbol against His church. No fear or respect for The Holy Amighty is a foolish and stupid way to live.

“...robes of (self)-righteousness in pew after pew...”

Traditionally Orthodox churches don’t have pews, though in the US I’ve seen exceptions.

“Pigs,” was my first reaction.

But self-respecting swine don’t do this.

I do not understand what is going on in some people’s minds.
Whatever. I don’t want it embedded in *my* mind.

Obviously, you are right: there are many people who appear to be living godly lives, but have evil hearts or are doing good things for bad reasons. God will handle them. There is nothing I have said that contradicts what you also assert. These two debauched losers have contaminated the world with their bad behavior. I didn’t seek this article out. The headline and photo flashed before my eyes, and, believe me, I wish they hadn’t. Our culture is in the sewer and I’ve had it.

I don’t think the mode of seating alters the phenomenon a bit.

King David are, I think, of a very similar mind, disposition, feeling on such matters. Congrats.

The rot is flooding the land like a tsunami. And the lobotomized slugs on the left are cheering as the tsunami engulfs everything in its path.

What utterly suicidally clueless such idiots are.

I think we have passed the brink, the cliff edge ... beyond which God will help the good-hearted in Love WITH HIM and consign the creatures on the other side of the values war to horribly dreadful consequences and reapings of their choices and actions.

May God have mercy on all of good heart toward Him.

I suspect these two reprobates will take the realities of marriage about as seriously as they did this house of worship. Divorced inside of 3 years is my prediction.

“Kyrillos announced a decision to ban all foreign weddings at the monastery of St Paul....”

Because Greeks are renown for decorum and keeping sex lives behind closed doors? Ahem.

“Part of that is relatively few, mostly wealthy and well educated Americans travel much.”

Says who?

“But Russian yuppies from Moscow and St. Petersburg can really give them a run for their money.”

A well-traveled friend of mine said she asked hotel employees in a posh hotel in Dubai, people who had dealt with people from all over the world, who are (generally) the most difficult types of hotel guests they deal with. The hotel employees responded quickly and emphatically: “Russians.”

The bride’s poor grandfather, at least, had the sense to say the photo was “disgusting”. Feel sorry that the old man has lived long enough to see a culture rot and his own granddaughter be both a victim and cause of the rot.
