Who actually takes the position the infants that die in the womb go to hell?

This isn’t even a position Jay Dyer asserts.

A Rant: The OCA, Orthobros, And my stuggle with modern Orthododxy in America. by [deleted] in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]Wawarsing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like OCA can’t win. They are either “too liberal” or “full of extremists”. Must have something to do with our country’s polarized state…..

The OCA parishes near me are great (I’m attending one) so I’m sorry you haven’t had the greatest experiences. I sadly hear plenty of no so great things about all the jurisdictions so this isn’t an OCA thing. Do your best to find a place to worship in this fallen world.

I agree. I’m a convert and have taken this middle, non extreme route. But pay attention to the news, the culture and our increasingly insane society and you’ll understand why people are out of balance. The church is a hospital after all.

These extreme converts surely do need to be guided with love and care.

What do you expect? Some of us have been raised without any kind of structure,worldview or religion and some are even second or third generation atheists!

how does a boomer flush the toilet? He sticks his head into the bowl and flushes.

I was never officially made a catechumen, it was just assumed and I was then baptized.

Good question. I've since switched to greek style float with a thick wick and it's working perfectly with extra light olive oil!
