Many people actually know I am that retarded and mentally rancid so it should not surprise anyone if my posts sound gibberish or bordering unto classical Cave-speak >:D
So, it's been a while and it's great to be back on Livejournal.

We weep when we want to.
And let ourselves die while clenching our fists and mourning for the loss of time.
Every single day is the end of a day. But I myself do not know about the perpetuity of such.

Establishing friendships is a paradox, a problem-statement if you will, given the fact of personalities and their uncertainties.
~~~~~~
We fear death for we fear our own dismal disintegration.

Please, do hearken and I shall speak.

"Emancipation."
Thus, it must be used in a sentence:
Thy emancipation shall be great when all dishonesty shall falter together with the atoms of a zombie's demise.
Emancipation.

Why won't The Liturgist pack his bags and just scram off to a glacier in the Northern Arctic where Benedict's pallium may not find him? He would be the Islands' Liturgist Emeritus a little bit sooner, anyway. Thus he could, at all times, perform a very solemn Dance of the Mohawks Around A Crackling Hearth as proof of solid liturgy upon his retirement
The Liturgist is definitely a pretty odd fellow.

But in the Russian Orthodox Church, a Holy Synod can compose of... wait... how many are they in the picture again?
Yah. 12. I did painstakingly count all of them present.
And here below is Patriach Kirill, the head of the whole Russian Orthodox Church. He looks wise.
Unfortunately, the album of the said Holy Synod does not have my favourite crush of a Metropolitan Bishop Hilarion Alfeyev in all of his glorious good looks... and in action. Those I've seen of him are quite bland.
By the way, here's Bishop Alfeyev (if the image looks garbled, it means that I didn't download it right since I'm swooning big time):
( What about Sakurai Sho, then? )
Admittedly, I'd want to attend a Russian Orthodox service once and see how it's like. I've always been enchanted by their ways of liturgical chanting, plus their famed liturgical praxis...
