[QUOTE="KantPost, post: 1483735, member: 22302"] The vibe from the Dyer fans is protective and I am left feeling like there is a cult aspect to Orthodoxy for many. Any criticism is quickly dismissed. The critic is "othered" and his opinion is discarded, out of hand. You are projecting. There is zero hate from Catholics towards Dyer here. The opposite. There is justified criticism of a questionable public figure. Your judging of us as "self-described Catholics" is an insult which is all too common from many Orthodox posters on here. You are the least Christian people I know of on the forum when it comes to Catholics and mocking our pope, hierarchy and faith. You still dismiss the legitimate points raised, in a reflexive manner which suggests to me that Dyer is beyond criticism for Orthodox and others (read: non-Catholic). Again, you make my point that the purpose of Dyer is to drive a wedge between Catholics and Orthodox. A true Christian would seek reconciliation and unity. It is plain as day to all that Dyer's purpose is division and disunity. I mean this is all so totally obvious to everyone, but there is this cultish behaviour whereby Orthodox close ranks and protect a man who has a quite checkered past and continues today to behave in all sorts of questionable ways. How much more obvious does this have to be. [/QUOTE]
