[QUOTE="HillsideDesolate, post: 3942568, member: 51737"] There's a lot to unpack, but many people are there for community, which is good. They current state of the church is highly fragmented due to schism after schism after schism and a few iconoclasms for good measure. To the point where people have "singing at the air" rituals, strobe lights and fog machines, but have never heard of the Liturgy of St John Chysostom. This is not to say all who go there are lost, the believe in Christ is a matter of faith, not attendance, and not simple ritual. Many saints were forged not in the halls of church, but in wilderness. I haven't attended in years myself after my state blocked it due to Covid I fell away. I did recently learn my denomination does exist here and will likely start again. Ultimately I am an ignorant sinner like the rest of us. May the Lord have mercy. [/QUOTE]
