24. If they blame
Sun Apr 13, 2025, 11:36 PM
Sunday

Zelensky or Poroshenko or Ukraine in general for any of the illegal Russian invasions of Ukraine, they are ignorant of the facts. Maybe they are just intellectually lazy, never fact check anything and find it easier to believe all the Russian propaganda. Gee, let's all sip mint juleps on the veranda and forget about those pesky facts.

If they really believe Eastern Orthodoxy is not "true Christianity," this only proves their true bigotry and ignorance. Those in the Christian sects who look down on Orthodoxy likely don't even know how Orthodoxy saved Christianity after the fall of Western Rome. Constantinople survived for another 1,000 years and reconquered the western part of the empire, arguably saving all of Christianity (from the so-called pagan barbarians), after the fall of Rome. BTW, I'm not Eastern Orthodox but was raised to respect ALL religions.

For those who really don't know, Constantinople was the capitol of the Eastern Roman Empire whose people primarily practiced Eastern Orthodoxy. It existed from 330 AD to 1453 AD.
