A new national poll conducted by Marist University finds an overwhelming majority of Americans support restrictions on abortion and would like Roe v.

The Plot to Destroy Orthodox Unity
“We need a split of Orthodoxy and the breakdown of Russia, and Ukraine, where betrayal is the norm of public morality, will help us in this.” Kyiv: By the end of this year, a “Council” will probably be held in Kyiv, at which the fate of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church will be decided: either the […]
The Forgotten Rule
A rule so forgotten that we have a generation that doesn’t even remember that they forgot it. A look at the mess of American society reveals a dearth of honest, respectful discourse which revels in the freedom to speak and enquire freely without fear of abuse or belittlement by a multitude whose basic thoughts are […]
Review: Mounted Icon Print from Orthodox Christian Supply
Recently, I was sent an icon of St. Euphemia, the All-Praised, the patroness of the online Theological Academy which I’m in charge of, for an appraisal and review.

That’s okay, Christianity has faced oppression and persecution before. We always win. Drive down Massachusetts Avenue, one of the main thoroughfares in the tony, hyper-educated city of […]
How the Nazis Used Gun Control
by Stephen Halbrook The perennial gun-control debate in America did not begin here. The same arguments for and against were made in the 1920s in the chaos of Germany’s Weimar Republic, which opted for gun registration. Law-abiding persons complied with the law, but the Communists and Nazis committing acts of political violence did not. In […]
‘End of History’ Near, Russian Orthodox Patriarch Says Again
The “end of history” is near and is “already visible to the naked eye,” the head of the Russian Orthodox church said on Monday in comments at the end of a service in Moscow. He said much the same thing in 2013. Patriarch Kirill told the congregation at the Christ The Savior Cathedral in central […]
