Where did 4runner insult you personally so that you thought you could say this?

Its not PAO123 or 4runner in this instance who've stifled debate but you Lakonian. What kind of way to debate is this with your "fellow Hellenes"?

I need help here.

I have just read that the phrase "hope, faith and charity" was first said by Heraclitus and not St. Paul.

I have been trying to find the exact saying of Heraclitus but have been unsuccessful. Could someone help me, please!

Effie

Victor, Greece changed to the new calendar for political reasons. Personally dates don't matter to me. What does matter is that some Greek Orthodox that belong to the Old Calendar seem to act fanatically in some instances.

Perish the thought.
There is no magical path, it is a road which requires much struggle and effort.

Christian till I die!!!
Also, shame on the Greek church for turning it's back on the Macedonian minority. Are we not Orthodox brothers?

Why do you single out the Greeks? There isn't a single Orthodox Church who recognises the so called 'Macedonian Orthodox' Church. Leave that Communist creation and rejoin the Serbian or Bulgarian Church, and especially cease the propaganda your so called church continues to spread in violation of the interim agreement. Then we will welcome you back with open arms.

Our church was up and running a long, long, long, long time ago. If my memory serves me correctly, then it was banned by some sultan in the 18th century. Anyway, I'm not worried by the fact that our church isn't recognised by the other churches because of political issues. Church and state should never mix. What I don't like is how the greek church did nothing to stop the atrocities that were being commited against the local Macedonian population by the state.
