DISCLAIMER:
I am not a priest, monk, or spiritual father. These postings are not intended to be your only source on Orthodoxy. You might want to consult a priest or spiritual father/mother about what you read here. Posts are also subject to my own progress in the Truth, God willing! Also, you might find it interesting to read the blog from the very beginning, since some of my posts are part of a continuing discussion around some things that have been very important to me at least, in coming to Orthodoxy. Finally, sometimes Comments lead to interesting 'tangents,' so you might want to check them out even if the main topic doesn't interest you. Hence, the blog has some 'organic' or 'nonlinear' qualities you might want to be on the lookout for! And of course, I don't necessarily endorse everything on sites I link to, nor in Comments I allow to stay here.Pages
