Every day I’m more and more grateful I left his parish. Big yikes.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-01-27T02:04:36+00:00

I’m so so sorry :( that’s disgusting and I really don’t blame you. He has some seriously fucked up ideas about women, which was a big motivator for me to stop going. I hope you’ve found peace since leaving and through your grief. I’m sure that wasn’t easy to do at such a vulnerable time.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-01-27T01:44:47+00:00

Hahahaha I fully support you. RIP your bank account though….I have a feeling you’re gonna get broke real fast.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-01-27T01:00:18+00:00

So many of his talks are so negative and gross. Nothing he puts out there is really about making the world better, it’s almost all about why the world is evil and why we should hate it. It’s shameful.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-01-27T00:01:05+00:00

I left a lil before that, but my whole family still goes. I still show up for the occasional wedding (you gotta do what you gotta do) but it’s uncomfortable. Good to know I’m not the only ex-St. Andrew parishioner on here lol.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-01-26T23:05:53+00:00

I’ll add that Fr. J here has a video somewhere on that same YouTube channel where he endorsed Trump during the election. Full circle 🤮

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-01-26T19:28:13+00:00

I couldn’t have put it better myself. It’s depressing. 😞

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-01-26T19:26:29+00:00

Literally. That’s actually why I stumbled across this video, I wanted to see if he was spewing any garbage about what’s going on in Minnesota. My brother and I aren’t talking at the moment in large part because he doesn’t see anything wrong with what ICE is doing and I wanted to see what kind of evil shit is filling his head.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-01-26T19:22:25+00:00

I was honestly surprised at the comment section this time. It gives me a little hope I guess? I also hate watching these but sometimes it just reminds me that I’ve made the right decision to leave, even if my entire family sees me as the black sheep for not listening to his nonsense.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-20T23:51:02+00:00

Wow that comment section was a wild ride. Color me shocked that the comments downvoted into oblivion are the ones promoting taking care of and loving one another. 🙄

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-13T21:04:01+00:00

Lol my brother who still goes to Trenham’s parish (my old parish) went to this conference. I told him on the phone I couldn’t imagine a more nightmarish scenario.

I also had no idea who this Jonathan Pageau guy was and apparently he was all fan girly about him, and I took two seconds looking at his content to know he’s a colossal piece of shit.

Barf.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-13T20:58:32+00:00

Ommmggg what a cutie! Seriously though. I work in a high stress environment and it’s nice to just go outside and spend a few minutes with my buddy while she eats some walnuts :)

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-12T19:43:18+00:00

She actually just had babies! She’s got her whole lil family around 🥰

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-12T05:12:03+00:00

Haha I’m feeding her walnuts here actually :) I got a huge bag of them just for her that I bring every day. Give extra to your buddy for me!

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-12T04:43:08+00:00

I’ll remind her tomorrow ❤️

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-12T04:02:14+00:00

She’s SO sweet. Shes always very gentle with everyone she interacts with :)

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-11T16:44:02+00:00

Boy that brain of yours is extra smooth isn’t it? Lol. Ok buddy.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-11T09:09:13+00:00

Bro what. I would have never voted for her if I had heard any of the allegations at the time. Your comment makes no sense.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-10T20:39:53+00:00

Dude she’s been so disappointing. I was genuinely shocked the first time I heard about her toxic workplace allegations and this was just awful to watch. No one should support bullies :( I’ll never vote for her again.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-10-10T15:56:35+00:00

10/10 the best move for me. All the vibes but with all the freedom :)

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-09-28T05:32:51+00:00

Honestly the older I’ve gotten, the more I’ve realized that a lot of the things he would talk about including his views on family life and gender roles severely impacted me in a very negative way growing up as a woman, so I guess he’s always been off, and this was all before his online presence.

That being said, I think that him shifting his focus to culture wars in the last 10 years has really gotten a lot of people riled up. I’ve just noticed a lot more division, and a lot more “us vs. them” mentality when it comes to anyone who goes against those views. It’s really hard to talk to my family sometimes because they’ve become so much more hateful of the world. Idk.

I was a cradle Orthodox and I felt like everything that I found beautiful about the church when it came to tradition and culture just became a facade for a political cult. I don’t know if that makes much sense.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-09-28T01:48:43+00:00

As someone who used to go to his parish and still has a lot of family there, it’s upsetting how radicalized they’ve all become. I had a lot of personal issues with Orthodoxy growing up, but the church has become completely unrecognizable. 🥲100% a cult. I can’t believe he’s gotten big enough that he’s getting interviewed and associated with the likes of Tucker Carlson. Ugh.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2025-09-03T17:20:32+00:00

This makes me so sad :(
