[NaveenPhilip]

Our forefathers did not suffer and die for the faith because it was popular to do so. The world that persecuted and executed them did not view them as heroes but viewed them as if they were outcasts. Learn from their example rather than continuing in your path of ignorance and pride. The only way we will bring Orthodoxy back is by following and studying the faith of our forefathers, not by commercializing and desecrating our faith.

[NaveenPhilip]

The youth leaders care more about making Orthodoxy and themselves look cool rather than actually living a real Orthodox lifestyle. Worldliness and Christianity are incompatible. If you don't understand what I'm saying, then perhaps you should go study the history of the Church. The Coonan Cross incident would be a good starting point. Or you could start by studying the life of Mar Gregorios.

[NaveenPhilip]

Just look at it like this - how do you think the holy man in whose memory this organization was started, Mar Gregorios, would feel if he were alive and witnessed the activities of the MGOCSM in this country? I don't think he'd view MGOCSM in this country as an avenue for spiritual growth but as an alleyway for spiritual pollution and destruction. MGOCSM has basically become a social networking group rather than a true Orthodox movement.

[NaveenPhilip]

Maybe instead of watching this youth instructional video, you should go back to Sunday School and study the basics of Christianity. 'Treat others the way you would like to be treated' has become a popular secular slogan, so I'm sure you've heard of it by now. I don't blame you, maybe it's because you've been brainwashed by the conception of Orthodoxy that is currently being propagated by the youth leadership of the MGOCSM of our Diocese.

[NaveenPhilip]

Brother, first of all, you should be aware that the speaker basically said that without communicating with the Achens, the MGOCSM would not be successful. How can you write a "retarded" and grammatically incorrect question like "What are trying to say because it doesn't make any sense??" and expect other people to understand it. Who is responsible for imparting so much spiritual wisdom into your mind?

Even More Retarded Comment: "I hope MGOCSM be less worldly and more spiritual as Parumala Thirumeni truly intended"

Answer to Even More Retarded Comment: What are trying to say because it doesn't make any sense??

Question: "Does anybody know if we even have an MGOCSM unit there?"

Answer: I do not know off hand if there is a registered MGOCSM unit in Boston or not. I do know that the youth gets together and conducts activities.

Retarded Comment: "I'm concerned because I heard that their achen is creating many serious problems in their church,especially for the youth, and the diocese"

Answer to Retarded Comment: What does this have to do with MGOCSM????

[NaveenPhilip]

thank you for posting this instructional video for the youth of the diocese. But I was confused about the locations of our mgocsm units. At the 4:45 mark the speaker says "and we have something in boston." Does anybody know if we even have an MGOCSM unit there? I'm concerned because I heard that their achen is creating many serious problems in their church,especially for the youth, and the diocese.I hope MGOCSM be less worldly and more spiritual as Parumala Thirumeni truly intended
