Are you church going? Do you keep the fasts and feasts?

Yes - my DH and I are. We are both disabled and can't attend Church anymore, but we were regular attenders - sang in choir, DH directed choir, sons served. All our children and grandchildren (except 4) are Orthodox and continue to attend regularly. Grandsons serve. Hope for a priest among that group!
Our priest visits us regularly for prayer, Confession, Holy Communion and Unction (anointing for healing).
We are very blessed.
There are many Orthodox Christian discussion lists on Yahoo, and many forums available online, if that's where you are going with your question.

I attended the Eastern Orthodox church for many years when things kind of got bad in the Catholic Church. It was like a temporary refuge. I am back in the Catholic Church now.
I love the beautiful liturgy of John Chrysostom and the Russian and Byzantine chant.
I have also attended the Byzantine Catholic Churches in my travels.
I keep the fasts and feast of the Roman Catholic Church. God bless you.

I have some orthodox inclinations, but I'm often very radical and hold liberal views.
I'm for gay rights, at least legal and secular rights, churchs can do what they want.
I, however, view someone who has sex as autmatically being married and they can't have sex with anyone else without committing adultery nor can they leave the person except for adulter by that other person. That's a conservitive stance.
I don't view sex as some type of game or sport and I'm shocked at how many women defend point of view. I would expect a man to defend it, but not a woman. I guess a lot of women out there are walking around with matresses tied to the backs.

Orthodox-Christian is an Oxy-Moron.
Lawed-Grace is also an Oxy-Moron.
DarkEnd-Light is also an Oxy-Moron.
Pst: an oxy-MORON has a BAD ending.
The Holy Bible has no such LAW ending;
Rather "the end" written is the end of laws(lies):
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.
