Filaret graciously agreed to negotiations with the Moscow Patriarchate. But he set conditions

The Synod of the so-called “Kyiv Patriarchate” at its meeting on December 13 agreed to create a commission for dialogue with the Russian Orthodox Church in response to the creation, at the suggestion of Patriarch Kirill of Moscow, of a similar commission for negotiations with Filaret’s members.

At the same time, however, the unrecognized “Kiev Patriarchate” agreed to dialogue with the canonical Church only under the following conditions:

– “recognition by the Moscow Patriarchate of the autocephaly of the Kyiv Patriarchate (read – the Moscow Patriarchate is invited to accept as a given the “autocephaly” of the “patriarchy”, which is not even recognized as a patriarchy, – D.S.).

– “the restoration by the Moscow Patriarchate of prayerful and eucharistic unity with the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kiev Patriarchate, because such unity should be between the Local Orthodox Churches (i.e., the Moscow Patriarchate - an integral part of the Church created by Christ Himself - is invited to recognize as equal to itself the semi-criminal office created in the dashing 90s, the commie Kravchuk and the defrocked Denisenko, as well as “restore” “prayer communication” with her, although there was no prayer communication between the Russian Orthodox Church and the “Kyiv Patriarchate” from the word “never” - D.S.);

- “the abolition by the Moscow Patriarchate of all obstacles that prevent the clergy and believers who are in Ukraine and recognize the jurisdiction of the Moscow Patriarchate over themselves from uniting with the UOC of the Kyiv Patriarchate in a single Local Ukrainian Orthodox Church.”

Without euphemisms, this is a demand for the granting of autocephaly to the canonical UOC-MP so that it can unite with the “Kyiv Patriarchate” in the future. Essentially, this is nothing more than an admission that the subject of dialogue with the Russian Orthodox Church is interference in the internal affairs of the Russian Orthodox Church!

As we have already noted, this is impossible even on the part of another local Church, not to mention a non-Church, which is the RPG “Kiev Patriarchate”.

And so that we do not doubt our conclusions, the “synod” emphasizes: “the entry of the Kyiv Patriarchate in any form into the administrative structure of the Moscow Patriarchate is impossible and is not the subject of dialogue.”

The last proposal, in theory, should assure the Ukrainian patriotic public of Filaret’s loyalty to the ideas of Bandera and Shukhevych.

However, as the reaction of the mentioned public showed, the very fact of readiness for dialogue with the “Church of the Aggressor” is perceived by them as zrada zrad.

Therefore, “in order to clarify the position of the UOC of the Kyiv Patriarchate in the matter of dialogue with the Russian Orthodox Church,” the “synod” adopted an “Appeal to the flock and the Ukrainian people.”

In this address, agreeing with the fascist public that the Russian Orthodox Church is a bullshit, the “synod of the Kyiv Patriarchate” nevertheless notes: “in recent months there have been signs that the position of the Moscow Patriarchate may change and that the leadership of this Church wants to find a way to overcoming hostility and towards reconciliation."

In this regard, the appeal contains a whole selection of quotations from the Gospel, calling for forgiveness even of such hopeless sinners as those gathered in the Russian Orthodox Church. The last of them: “So, if your enemy is hungry, feed him” (read: if the enemies are hungry for communication with us - the “sons of light” - God himself ordered the creation of a dialogue commission in response).

Moreover, the “synod” of mummers emphasizes that this dialogue is needed not by the “Kyiv Patriarchate”, but by the Moscow Patriarchate: “In order to know that our Church is the true Orthodox Church, part of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, we do not need turn to someone with questions, confirmation or recognition. That is, from other Local Churches, including the Russian, we do not seek and do not strive for them to “assure” us by their recognition that we are the true Church. We strive and want them to be convinced and convinced of the truth of the Kyiv Patriarchate.” (highlighted in red in the original, – D.S.).

Well, it remains to admit that, alas, we were right in our conclusions two weeks ago, when, at the suggestion of the Patriarch of Moscow, a commission was created headed by the head of the DECR himself, Metropolitan. Hilarion Alfeev for dialogue with nonentities (in violation of the canons prohibiting any communication with schismatics, except for accepting repentance from them): the leadership of the Russian Orthodox Church then took the bait in the form of a “repentance” letter from an old swindler. And now I received a most humiliating slap.

They wanted to outwit the anathema, but they lost sight of who was behind it. To compete with evil spirits, you must have God on your side. But it seems that the DECR has long forgotten about this.
