New War in Ukraine: After the Pan-Eastern Orthodox Synod failed, where are we

Since the Pan-Orthodox meeting failed, at least in the view of the Russian Orthodox Church, there have been some interesting developments. Most notable is that Patriarch Bartholomew who lives in Turkey left Turkey a few hours before the recently claimed coup attempt. He has not returned and some in Turkey find the cicumstances quite odd. Old Bartholomew was the primary mover of getting the Pope and Russian Patriarch to meet. Bartholomew was also the one who refused to delay the Synod when Russian and other Churches ask for it to be delayed. Also, Bartholomew is pushing to have or helping the Ukranian Orthodox to become independent of the Russian Church. So, there may be some connection between Russia becoming buddies with Turkey, the coup and Bartholomew power plays.

HISTORICAL: It has been over 1,000 years since the last Holy Synod came together following their split from the Roman Catholic Church over doctrine. Pope Francis as well as Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew of Turkey has been pushing for reconciliation and of course no real Christian Church could ever agree to be in unity with the Roman Catholic if for no other reason than their Mary worshipping satanic inspired dogma. I expect other Orthodox Churches will refuse the call for unity. The Roman Catholic Church, the World Council of Churches (protestant) Muslims, & Jewish religious groups are hoping to unite under one umbrella of "we are all similarly religious". And you see how that world famous scientist's newly pronounced discovery of intelligent design will make it easier for even Atheist to unite. One World Religion then breeds One World Government. But a true Christian cannot or better not buy into that trap. Our God is One. There is no other God before Him. He is a jealous God, powerful and His judgements are Righteous.
