Erm



I'm not entirely sure what's going on here, but I just took this from the ROCOR home page. One has to wonder what the bishop in the middle is thinking.

That was AWESOME, Ian.

Yeah, I don't know what the middle bishop is thinking. Perhaps one could dare to say it's something like this: "One day, I'll have a hat and veil that are as natural-looking as his. Mine is wrinkled and shiny. Why???"

Leetle Masha wishes the catechumens to cease speculating on what a bishop might be thinking at any given time; it's the same thing as reading The Rudder without the supervision of a staretz. Dangerous. ;)

But...the Rudder is like the ONLY book you'll ever need, isn't it???

Yes, as a door stop. The main problem with the Rudder in its English translation, is that the bulk of the book is some 19th c. commentary by two Greek monks - and for those who make the Rudder their Gospel, seem to be easily confused (or overshadow) the canons themselves. If one just printed the canons - it would be a much slimmer volume; though, as it was printed - it gives us a pretty good headstart at having our own Talmud.

The gentleman in the centre is not a bishop. Try again all.
