Fordham Orthodox to Discuss Hagia Sophia

The "Primacy" of the Patriarch of Constantinople
Crux: ‘Orthodox Social Ethos’ aims to put Eastern Church spin on social issues by Charles C. Camosy
If it's not an official document of Patriarch Bartholomew, then why should it be accorded any weight. And even if it were, then why should it be accorded any weight? As a document of moral theology, it must be evaluated as such -- where was the discussion with bishops and theologians who might have disagreed with the language or the premises?

Which tradition?
I AM A TRADITIONALIST; THEREFORE, I AM by Aristotle Papanikolaou
Papanikolaou makes use of MacIntyre regarding traditions; but shouldn't he distinguish between different ecclesial traditions? There is Sacred Tradition (or the Orthodox equivalent) and then there are theological traditions. There may also be theological opinions about moral teaching but that doesn't mean that those opinions do not reflect the Natural Law. Does Papanikolaou accept that there is a Natural Law? What is his take on the moral law as revealed in the Old Testament?
For those who seek to innovate, they must meet the burden of proof.
And there is also the question of what in the Byzantine tradition reflects Sacred tradition and what does not (female deacons, as opposed to
deaconesses).

What is going on at the OSC at Fordham?
British Council Awards Grant to Orthodox Christian Studies Center for LGBTQ Research
Both faculty members in question are Greek Orthodox, I believe, solidifying the impression that their jurisdiction is the laxist in the U.S. Even if they weren't sincere believers in their project, this would still be scandalous to the faithful.

New, but not improved... A Response to Public Orthodoxy, on the Creed by Fr. John Whiteford
John Fotopoulos and Aristotle Papanikolaou, in their recent article "Women and the Creed: Who For Us Humans and for Our Salvation," (published by "Public Orthodoxy") have expressed their unhappiness that the Greek Archdiocese has decided to use a translation of the Creed that is in line with pretty much every other translation that English speaking Orthodox Christians have been using for as long as we have had Orthodox Christians speaking English. They are offended by the use of the word "man".
