FAQ

Can I link to your post on my blog/website?

Sure, go for it. I'm flattered that anyone loves and/or hates my writing enough to want to share it.

Why won't you reply to my comment?

Because reading the comments gives me anxiety, sorry. I didn't anticipate that there would BE any comments, so I wasn't really prepared.

But wait-- if you haven't read the comments, how do you know which questions are frequently asked?

I do not. I am making all this up.

So are you afraid of debate?

Yes. I am very conflict avoidant.

Your post made me mad.

That's not really a question. But if it makes you feel better, consider that I am just a random person on the Internet with very little influence, and you have no obligation to care what I say or think.

I liked your post and it was helpful to me.

Yay! Thanks for reading! I'm glad it was helpful.

Who are you to challenge Orthodox Tradition and criticize an ordained Orthodox Priest?

Just a lady with some thoughts and a compulsion to write them down.

Are you even Orthodox?

I was Chrismated into the Orthodox Church as an adult convert, along with my husband. Our children were both Baptized in the Orthodox Church.

For pragmatic reasons that mostly have to do with our location, we do not currently attend an Orthodox church. However, Orthodoxy has profoundly impacted my understanding of Christianity, and I feel that a part of me will always love the Orthodox Church, despite the critiques I have made here.

So that's a no?

*Sigh*

Are you going to continue to write about the Orthodox Church?

I have no idea. I just write whatever I feel compelled to write.

Are you go to start posting regularly?

I have never done anything regularly, so probably not.
