If the orthodox church took a fight against the Vatican by exploiting the power of the autocefala type of orthodox church and by doing so they were able to switch the Pope into a christian Bishop, it makes no sense that they keep on running into the heavy sinner mode and refuse to be normal orthodox church. An autocefala type of church cannot convert the Vatican for the goal of forcing a marriage a priest to get married thus the sin goes overboard turning the entire operation into a big witch. By the way they like power to science that keeps on seeking power to get knowledge to browse into the future of get lost either into space or into the dinosaurs and big bang yet today they are not even good for gang bang.

Hey Azir, is this your only link at communication? You seem desperate for attention. Didn't mommy give you enough love before she was sold into prostitution and you had to fend for yourself?

It's hilarious to see self proclaimed 'Atheist's get all riled up and begrudging of people who have faith. It's pure hypocracy. It shows nothing more than disrespect and defensiveness. If you don't believe then why the need to put down those who do? Understand the shades of grey - for me it's about tradition and my family. Some of us are not so fortunate it seems.

Unnecessary foolishness - transparent idiot.

That fire burnt like a crucible and candles did not start it. To have a fire of that intensity requires an accelerant.
You are not a Serb so stop pretending.

To all the religious nut cases here. Screw you and your private imaginary friend in the sky who somehow has soved all the problems in the world, you know since he is "omnipotent", and now seems to enjoy playing a game of ethnic poker. My he save all your future religious institutions since his battery was dying this time and he didn't have enough power to save this one. That's what happens when you're so rich and have houses all over the world. Eventually you stop giving a damn.

Stop blaming innocent people aka Albanians that probably never knew who this bldg belong to!?
(the truth, 2 May 2016 19:06)

Did you even read my comment? I didn't say Albanians are connected to this because you're not that capable or organized to pull something like this off. But you seem to know a lot about cameras around 25th street in New York, just as much as you seem to know things happening in Kosovo that no one else reports.

Is it a coincidence "truth" that you know something about cameras so you'd be able to get around them? Or are you, like always, making things up to sound smart. Even though you accuse me of blaming Albanians when I didn't even mention them?

My instincts are usually right about these things - and my instincts point to The Illuminati. May 1 was the peak of some Illuminati celebration, and the Illuminati are connected with the power elite - which includes government and shadow government officials and their operatives. This is showing the reach of the Illuminati across the globe.

a question for truth

pre 8 godina

i wonder if this threads "truth" is the same author in other threads using the same pen name.

i see in this thread truth guarantees a slew of video recording devices along 25th which would have captured a potential perpetrator on film.
i see in another thread truth guarantees that there was no holy flame in a motorcade from serbia to kosova.
i can't see how truth could guarantee both these claims, some 7000 km apart

No wonder albanians are getting turned on by this news. It reminds them of the good old days when burning churches was a family tradition in Kosovo.

The real truth

pre 8 godina

If the church fires in Australia and the USA were not accidental, then they were most likely started by the Albanian ISIS members who fought in Syria and Iraq where they were brainwashed and indoctrinated into forming a new caliphate. Important part of the caliphate's doctrine is to destroy anything Christian. Being that Albanians are world renowned cowards who always cry for somebody to help them, or suck up to the most powerful like they did in Kosova* with NATO and with Hitler in WW2, church burning would be right up their alley--since it is the most cowardly and brainless and easy act to accomplish. Not mention the fact that in the last 25 years, the Albanians have the most experience than anybody on the planet when it comes to desecrating and destroying Christian cemeteries and burning churches and monasteries.

Soon the fire investigators will determine if the fire was accidental or if it was probably caused
by those Albanians who number into thousands and who like to chop off Christian heads and drown Christians in steel cages.

And so you have shown, you even burn your own churches. Nothing surprising there. Just like you kill your own people to protect criminals.

Re: serbs arson job @ 25 th and Broadway...NYC

In all seriousness this was the work of greedy serbs that couldn't develop since strict Landmark restriction limit if not prohibit any changes to use...

While real estate values soar....

And the parking lot developer to the West adjacent of the church was in litigation with the stuborn serbs on finalizing-fixing a price on transferring or selling air rights so this " accident" was convient for both parties....

A major criminal investigation is in order because dispicable slav serb criminals can no longer PROFIT from their outrageous crimes....

The City Council must prohibit development for profit on this crime scene!

Seems kind of a coincidence for all this to take place on Orthodox Easter. I hope this wasn't the work of certain individuals who are sour about being rejected at UNESCO, because what better way to prove you accept religious diversity than burning down a church after you don't get your way. Let's hope it's not that though.

During Easter always have fires in Orthodox Churches in USA.
People hold candles and the buildings are from wood and not stone.
This combination is not good.
So stop pointing fingers toward Albanians because they didn't even know that an Serbian Orthodox Church exist in New York.

No surprise posts from some of the dregs of Cyber Illyria are dominating the comment section. That's pretty much all they can do. All I see are three churches that will be rebuilt and the only thing truly lost is time, money, and patience. If this was planned, the goal was useless. If some get their kicks out of it, they truly lead sad, pathetic, miserable lives.

I'm also not going to point the finger until investigations have been concluded as those who love to jump to conclusions are usually those who love to think they're morally superior to the people they think deserve this.

Did you even read my comment? I didn't say Albanians are connected to this because you're not that capable or organized to pull something like this off. But you seem to know a lot about cameras around 25th street in New York, just as much as you seem to know things happening in Kosovo that no one else reports.

Is it a coincidence "truth" that you know something about cameras so you'd be able to get around them? Or are you, like always, making things up to sound smart. Even though you accuse me of blaming Albanians when I didn't even mention them?

The FDNY could not yet identify a cause for the fire, but Velic noted that the Easter ceremony involved many candles.

“I can only imagine there were thousands of people coming to this church lighting candles,” he said. “The candles may have caused it.”

If the orthodox church took a fight against the Vatican by exploiting the power of the autocefala type of orthodox church and by doing so they were able to switch the Pope into a christian Bishop, it makes no sense that they keep on running into the heavy sinner mode and refuse to be normal orthodox church. An autocefala type of church cannot convert the Vatican for the goal of forcing a marriage a priest to get married thus the sin goes overboard turning the entire operation into a big witch. By the way they like power to science that keeps on seeking power to get knowledge to browse into the future of get lost either into space or into the dinosaurs and big bang yet today they are not even good for gang bang.

Saint George Cathedral survived with minimal damage, but Saint John Church was burn to the ground.

Do you think that Albanians burnt their own churches?

During Easter always have fires in Orthodox Churches in USA.
People hold candles and the buildings are from wood and not stone.
This combination is not good.
So stop pointing fingers toward Albanians because they didn't even know that an Serbian Orthodox Church exist in New York.

And so you have shown, you even burn your own churches. Nothing surprising there. Just like you kill your own people to protect criminals.

The real truth

pre 8 godina

If the church fires in Australia and the USA were not accidental, then they were most likely started by the Albanian ISIS members who fought in Syria and Iraq where they were brainwashed and indoctrinated into forming a new caliphate. Important part of the caliphate's doctrine is to destroy anything Christian. Being that Albanians are world renowned cowards who always cry for somebody to help them, or suck up to the most powerful like they did in Kosova* with NATO and with Hitler in WW2, church burning would be right up their alley--since it is the most cowardly and brainless and easy act to accomplish. Not mention the fact that in the last 25 years, the Albanians have the most experience than anybody on the planet when it comes to desecrating and destroying Christian cemeteries and burning churches and monasteries.
