      The words of Archbishop Demetrious were great until he asked God for His guidance for Trump and Pence. Will Clinton get equal time from an Orthodox hierarch next week? His words coupled with Trump’s exhortation for churches to get more involved in politics trouble me.

      He’s speaking at the DNC as well Jeff. I’m sure he’ll ask His guidance for Clinton Kaine as well. Would you want anything else from our leaders?
