New at the Onion Dome

The Onion Dome: Orthodox News with a Twist is up again this week. Here are the headlines:

The monks of Mount Athos are protesting the reunification talks between "the Church Overseas of Russian Orthodox Christians (COROC) and the Patriarchate of Moscow, St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, and All the Russias Besides (PMSPNNARB)," in which that excellent COROC priest Fr. Alexis Lafitov makes an appeareance.

The insurance carrier for St. John Orthodox Church in Springfield Wash., ups its premiums because of a series of altar-boy merry mishaps.

And your humble rambling reporter finds an Orthodox spiritual autobiography, My Life: In Christ by Fr. William ("St. John the Baptist") Clinton, suprising the publishing industry as it climbs the New York Times bestseller list.
