New Russian patriarch reiterates support

Take a straight line going south of the Urals and you will find your homelands there.

The Patriarch is the leader of the third Rome and his followers will not be pleased when they return to KiM...

"regarding Kosovo...which is based on the respect of Serbia's territorial wholeness and international agreements, will not change."
Religion? Please stay away of politics for God's sake if you really have a God!

EA, is this the same advice you gave to Thaci & Co. when they went to the Islamic council for help?
Don't be a hypocrite.

Yes, Russian Church is standing by the Seriban church and we do have a God.

Being so dramatic isn't going to add to your argument.

This is a huge loss for Kosovo as some church in the Ural Mountains thinks otherwise.

I do not want to attack anyone in person. But one of the previous comments is very offensive.

Otherwise, while being not part of politics, the Church leader may have an opinion and is free to voice it. I don't find it very unusual, the voicing happened in a friendly company. I am not Orthodox or religious (if that matters) either, but I happen to share and support that opinion.

As far as "Third Rome", yes, it is a funny historic thing, "copyrighted" by Grand-Duke Ivan III. So far, it's the only "Third Rome" which is still around. Others, who claimed to be "Thirds" and attacked it (Gold Horde, Napoleon, hitler) landed up in big doo-doo. Not sure, what chances the mighty Quetzalcoatl, the human organ-devouring Aztec feathered serpent, pardon me, "pigeon-snake" has here.

Let me answer your question

".. is this the same advice you gave to Thaci & Co. when they went to the Islamic council for help?

The answer is Yes if he has gone and argue Kosova's case because "he is a muslum". Kosova isssue for Kosova's people has never and will never be a religious issue. Whole world knows that.

EA, can you not see how you have contradicted yourslef here?

If it's not a religious issue, then tell me what reason would he have for asking the Islamic Council for help?
Islamic Council is a religious based organization. What else would he be doing there except to argue as a Muslim?

Do you expect Christians or Jews to be connected to them?

Peggy,

The Serbs are desperate to score points even with rediculous arguments like "slav brothers". Just to extinguish your curiosity. Kosova needs the support from the other countries including the muslum countries but not on the ground of religioun.
