Archbishop Anastasios proclaimed honorary citizen of Korytsa
The Korytsa Municipal Council has bestowed the distinction of “Honorary Citizen” to the Archbishop of Tirana, Dyrrahios and all Albania, Mr. Anastasios.
According to announcement in Friday’s edition of “Corrieri” newspaper, the special ceremony organized by the Holy Metropolis, was attended by local Korytsa officials and dignitaries. The distinction was given for the Archbishop’s “outstanding contribution” and for the “resurrection of Orthodoxy and his work in creating religious foundations in Korytsa.
Very nice.
It really creeps me out when I see nationalists using scientific methods to give a reasonable aura to their delusional nationalistic diarrhea.
Tell me, who the hell is he? and really ..who the hell cares?
I read a group of folks in athen demanded access to zeus's temple so they could do their ceremonial worship, how are they diff. from this metropolitan ..whatsisname?
enough
that man has done some good deeds in Albania but i think it is time for a thank you very much and good bye,
Albanian orthodox church should be run by Albanians !!!!
he can
He can still help ... he does not have to be the head of the Albanian orthodox church! I wonder how open would u be to the idea of some albanian man heading your church?

Religious peace in Albania is people being able to live together happily... which is true... not about agreeing on politically based decision..
The very reason that Kok face is still around is because of it...
Secondly your topic is way old. You did it only for the purpose of instigating Albs, a usual. Especially by writing down Korce as Korytsa and Durres and Dyrrahio... Edited by: Meltdown711 at: 1/21/07 6:50 am
I don't pray 5 times a day, I don't go to a mosque, I don't know @#%$ about islam, I drink alcohol everyday, I whack off everyday, I have ate pork, I do everything that is restricted in the muslim religion...and oh yeah, if you don't believe that I am a atheist, and that I am just trying to say that @#%$, just go type my name on google and see how anti-religion I am...I don't believe a god or heaven or hell or ghosts or whatever you religious people see when you get high on crack...I can defend my atheist position anytime against anybody better then anything ever.
In fact I am a very devout atheist, I am "evangelical atheist"!
I don't know about the rest of the people in this forum who say that they are atheist, but for me you can be sure for that...
Give me one thing that you think makes me a muslim you paranoid old man! You Greeks are really still living in the 14 century, if you had the chance to start another crusade you would do it...In my eyes you are not very different from those people in Iran about issues like this!
By semi-religious I mean, go to Teqe (NOT MOSQUE) on holidays just like EVERY Albanian no matter what religion, go to orthodox church during orthodox holidays with our neighbors, go to catholic church during their holidays...Celebrating christma just like every other albanian no matter what religion, etc.
NOT covering ANY of the women in the whole family etc.
NOT praying EVER...It is not part of the BEKTASHI sect, and it is THE MOST important thing in the islamic religion!
Drinking Alcohol...It is part of the Bektashi sect, but it is forbiden in Islam!
They have even encouraged me to go to a church, because as they say, it is a good thing...
Rex can confirm the following...Because he comes from the same village as my mother, and he knows my mother's family...The majority of the people in this village about 99% are Albanian, and all of them muslim, but there is a orthodox church on top of the mountain, and Albanians are the ones that take care of that church, they light up candles every night, and take care of it as a sacred place...My mom when she was growing up, she used to go and light up candles there and even help with whatever they needed...During summer 2004 when I visited my grandparents, I even went there and lighted up few candles because my little cousins were going there everynight and taking care of it, so I went with them!
Don't try to talk to me about that muslim bullcrap that you are talking about, because Albanians are different...We are not religious freaks, and even during the ottoman occupation you could find Albanians going to both church and mosque, and their reason was, that their way to heaven (whatever that is) was secure! You could find the same thing happening in Kosova today, and most Kosovars are converting at really high rates to protestants...Which I think it is not good, atheism is the way to go!
You obviously don't know a thing about the Bektashi's either, my ancestors were most likely orthodox, and good that they converted otherwise they would be extremists like most Greeks, and probably be Greek too!

Really? What are these public characteristics? Maybe Homeland Security can use your help.
Korcar, wth you saying? There are many AOC members of this board. And, I'm quite sure they'll all be adding their opinions of him, as they should, bec. they have 1st hand experience of this person.
I saw this man at the Dajte Hotel and he gave me this look/sense of 'entitlement' I had never even seen in the states. But, clearly pronounced among some serb/greek attitudes on this board.
Re: ...
Like I said...the muses are always the first to b!tch..yet they say their athiest... if you are, why do you care....so much about other peoples beliefs?
Illiri..you missed the point I was trying to make....
It really creeps me out when I see nationalists using scientific methods to give a reasonable aura to their delusional nationalistic diarrhea.
Re: ...
Interesting how you enjoy derogating Muslims by diminutizing their official name. The first to 'bitch" is a sign? lol...guess that helps Homeland Sec. little. I guess by your definition all Italians and Israelis, well even greeks, at airports should be the first to be arrested for their loud jabbering.
Quote:Is that a picture of an Othorodox celebration? I checked the link but I could only find a directly to a photo gallery.
That looks like a Holiday celebration...
Everyone knows the population of Korca is mostly Albanian Orthodox.
Secondly, why are you now starting to use "korytiots" whatever
About the photograph:
I think i see myself in there... and then they put a janullatos pic. what a great insult to all those who feel Albanian.
I got 2theories. The theories of Fannoli
1. They are celebrating orthodoxy and somebody pasted Janullatos face i n the picture
2. They are not educated enough to understand how hurtful to their national cause is a man like that.
I think its the first one... but i dont doubt that there are people from my second theory.
