"In essence, the conservative person is simply one who finds the permanent things more pleasing than Chaos and Old Night. (Yet conservatives know, with Burke, that healthy 'change is the means of our preservation.')" -Russell Kirk

Metropolitan Laurus, Requiescat in Pace
With great sandess I report, a day late, the repose of one of the Orthodox Church's great hierarchs: Metropolitan Laurus of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia (ROCOR). He led the flock in its principled stance against the Moscow Patriarchate and its tendencies to compromise with the Godless Bolsheviks, but rightly reconciled with her when it was time to do so.
Reqiscas in Pace, sacerdos bonus et fidelis!
Memory Eternal! Memory Eternal! May his Memory be Eternal!
