This group is for free and open discussion of jurisdictional issues facing the Orthodox Church.

Such discussions have become quite heated in the past, and have often scandalized those wishing to learn more about Orthodoxy as well as those new to the Church.

While discussions on this list should be free and open, listmembers are encouraged to maintain civility and decorum. Ad hominem attacks or the use of inappropriate language are not permissible.

It is hoped that this list will engender frank dialog and allow those of differing jurisdictions to understand one another better.
