Welcome to the Orthodox Christian Forum List!

This List is for discussion between Orthodox Christians and others interested in the Orthodox faith.

Orthodox Christians believe that it is within the Orthodox Church that the full revelation of Christ to the world is preserved and where it can be experienced. We welcome those Christians who are not of the Orthodox faith but wish to learn more about it.

This List is independently operated with no connection to any particular Orthodox jurisdiction.

Discussion is conducted in a spirit of love and humility, particularly when engaging Christians of non-Orthodox churches.

This List is a discussion group formed by private invitation and acceptance by the List Moderators. The List moderators offer an invitation to participate to everyone, especially Orthodox Christians. Membership will remain a blessing for those who abide by some basic guidelines.

Six basic rules apply:

1) Respect towards all contributors is required;

2) Polemics are not allowed;

3) Not more than three (3) messages per day per member.

4) Each post must be signed with the full name of the contributor, no pseudonyms allowed.

5) The Orthodox Forum's aim is not to discuss secular political concerns, particularly (but not limited to) those which contain, or are linked to campaign material of candidates, parties or political ideologies.

6) Any characterizations or claims of unethical, immoral or criminal behavior can only be made if the poster supplies supporting evidence (documentation, web site, etc.).

For questions about List policy, please contact the List Moderators by sending an email to Orthodox-Forum-Owner@yahoogroups.com. The List Moderators are:

Bill Samsonoff and Fr. Michael Regan
