Hi!
How do you think that we have to see the Old Calendarists? (I mean those who are in Schism, like the Genuine Orthodox Church of Greece, not Churches like the Russian that uses the old calendar, however she's in communion with the Ecumenical Patriarchate)
I think this is not the Churches official stance, but personally I don't see them as in error. I think that the schism will be solved, God's willing. As soon as an Orthodox Church follows the Orthodox doctrines, has the same traditions etc I see them as Orthodox.
In conclusion: I could never brake my communion with the Ecumenical Patriarchate, however I can't judge them for disagreeing with the change of the calendar.
Any thoughts on this?
