On the contrary, I am seeking to avoid calling into question the membership of a beloved Orthodox bishop in the Orthodox church on the basis of an authority that I do not think you or I posess according to my own understanding of Holy Tradition or the canons of the Pedalion.
Also, in a previous post you accused me of an argument from silence fallacy concerning Theistic Evolution, which I disagree with; I believe it is not fallacious to assert that the majority of the Fathers of the Church did not disagree with Theistic Evolution since the scientific fact of Evolution had not at the time been demonstrated, and what is more there are various models that can be used to assert that the events in Genesis did occur as written without contradicting the established scientific principle of evolution (for example, one can assert that Adam and Eve were created as if they had evolved from primates, and I myself lean towards such a view in the case of Genesis 2; Genesis 1 on the other hand is somewhat unique in that it is the only religous text in existence which can be reconciled with our current scientific understanding of how the universe began, and this is a scientific understanding arrived at only very recently.
However, on the subject of logical fallacies, certain arguments you present are consistent with a category of informal logical fallacy, as I believe i mentioned to you previously, the appeal to purity, known colloquially as the “No True Scotsman” fallacy.
Also, I really doubt that there are as many Orthodox priests and bishops who hold Tradition in contempt as you suggest. Whether or not they actually hate Orthodoxy is something only God is in a position to know, and we have to trust God to judge them, but Orthodox laity such as yourself can refuse attempts at altering the faith via a latrocinium, as happened with the Council of Florence, and indeed one could argue that it was the concerns that the laity had over what might have happened at the Council of Crete that, in combination with controversial statements made by the Ecumenical Patriarchate on various issues, resulted in so many canonical Orthodox churches simply not participating, and thus greatly limited the scope of action of that council.
Where is the evidence for the claim that we don't have the authority to question the membership of a bishop, and that I am giving my own understanding? This is really simple. Do you agree with Kallistos' statements or not? You are now guilty of the fallacy of suppressed evidence, because you simply ignore the sources I cited, which prove that Kallistos did not hold to the Orthodox faith.
In all charity, I believe you have come under the influence of modernist clergy and were never properly catechized or rooted in the Orthodox faith. Metropolitan Kallistos Ware condemned himself by his own words. I even cited the sources. The Fathers teach that all Christians, whether laity or clergy are obligated to guard the faith against unworthy bishops. Metropolitan Kallistos Ware directly contradicted Orthodox Tradition and teaching on several key issues, which places him outside the Orthodox faith and Church.
When you claim that the majority of the Fathers did not disagree with Theistic Evolution, you argue again from silence (a fallacy) and shifted the burden of proof. It is incumbent on YOU to show that they believed in Theistic Evolution. There is absolutely no evidence that any Church Father believed in Theistic Evolution, but we do have lots of evidence that they didn't believe in it. Your position implies that the Tradition of the Church needs to change and be updated. This is MODERNISM.
Except for Blessed Augustine (who believed everything was created at once, either actually or potentially), the Church Fathers unanimously believed that the earth was created in six natural days.
The literal and obvious sense of Genesis 1-11 was held by all Christians and Jews until the time of so-called enlightenment in the eighteenth century.
The Fathers and Doctors of the Church, and all the popes, bishops, and faithful for nineteen centuries believed that God created Adam immediately from the dust of the earth.
St. Basil said that God made Adam directly from the earth to distinguish him from animals.
Adam was created from the earth according to Saints Irenaeus, Cyril of Jerusalem, Gregory of Nyssa, Cyril of Alexandria, John Damascene, Ephraim, Tertullian, Ambrose, Jerome, Augustine.
As for your claim that evolution is a fact, you show that you are not an Orthodox Christian, because Orthodoxy has never believed this. At no time did the Fathers and saints ever believe in Theistic Evolution. We only see it today among modernists who are ashamed of their faith and caught-up in human respect. Modern science has refuted the theory of Evolution. I can recommend several resources by top scientists.
With regard to your accusation of my alleged appeal to purity, you misunderstand this fallacy, and never actually showed that I committed it.
