I would STRONGLY oppose the wearing of a cassock by any layman. The cassock signifies that one has received tonsure into monasticism / minor order from a bishop. It is a commitment of lifelong dedication to serving God. It is HIGHLY improper for a layman to wear such a garment.
"We must always remember that the spiritual father performs his ministry in the Holy Spirit, and therefore we should have reverence for him. Believe, brothers, that if someone were to die in the presence of a spiritual father and the dying person says, “Holy Father, give me your…
The root of the whole modern aberration. The retreat of man into his mind. Away from reality. Into the prison of his own illusions.
Fr. Seraphim Rose ☦️
Brand new people, through divine providence seen and unseen, walk into the doors of the Church every day.
At any time, God can bring you a spouse. Putting your trust in numbers will lead to the implosion of your faith.
Yeah, get out there and meet people, evangelize, whatever.…
@DavidBCollum Spiritual Parasitism. You want a host (religion) to benefit from without participating in it. Your only interest in the host is that it won’t die so you can continue the societal benefit. Yet too many spiritual parasites will kill the host and lead to nihilism.
Remember when many (not all) bishops were wrong in Covid and warned about myself and others?
But we were right. Since then no one has reached out, apologized or admitted anything.
God watches our hearts and checks its content. We must constantly examine ourselves, repent for the past, and fear our weaknesses. We must not however lose hope of our salvation.

@sincead33 "Cappadocian theology and Constantinople I is distorted view of the Trinity, yes the fathers are ALL wrong"
Insane levels of anachronism from the Catholics, but they don't know the history of the issue.
@YoungPenitent St Porphyrios commenting on politics said the flock has many different colors of sheep. I don't see a reason for all the political, un-loving, and worldly-minded "you MUST be" or "you CANT be" language. Jew to Jews and Greek to Greek situation, everyone has their own opinions.

that do not have the secular mindset
and have reached a spiritual state.
This is what the world needs today.
St Paisios the Athonite (+1994)
