this is actually basically correct. I almost became orthodox once and while a lot of the theology is credited the actual church is very dead

'eastern orthodoxy' is a set of parochial churches tied specifically to LANGUAGE and HISTORY. that's why there is an armenian orthodox church, a greek one, etc. you can't just be some random american english-speaker with no ethnic connection to those churches and parachute into them. it's silly. these are not 'abstract'/universalist creeds. they arose from a specific substrate of history and ethnicity.

if you can't even speak or read the nominal language of your orthodox church (let alone old church slavonic itself), you are a fraud, and you will NEVER be a genuine member of the faith. you are, at most, an absurd LARPer. that's harsh, but true.

The churches in America recognize that, so they're pushing for bilingual services. Old generation that came over pre and post fall of Communism are dying off, so are the clergy. A lot of upcoming clergy are either second generation immigrants or first generation but came here when they were young/think of themselves more as American than their parents' ethnicity

lol this is not credited at all. other than the fact that yeah its dumb to try to larp in some serbian church or whatever.

there are plenty of places where not only is the liturgy in english, its the priest's native language and most parishioners are converts or the children of them.

the armenian church isnt EO btw theyre non-chalcedoneans ie "oriental orthodox"

Nope.

Nope.

There might be some rogue churches but I will need to see links before I accept that there have been any changes on either of those.

That's not contradicting my point on rogue churches. Every religion has that. But there is a difference between what you see with other denominations (official and open acceptance of this shit) and Orthodoxy which is general opposition to these trends.

Eastern Orthodoxy is the only Church not totally destroyed by the shitlibification of Christianity. Totally pointless and a "dead church" other than increasing membership numbers. Possibly because they don't have a female "priest" performing gay tranny marriages as part of their "Services."
