Ecumenism: A Movement for Union or a Syncretistic Heresy?
Number III of Contributions to a Theology of Anti-Ecumenism

by Bishop Angelos of Avlona
Translated by Archbishop Chrysostomos of Etna and Hieromonk Patapios

ISBN 0–911165–34–7
79 pp.
$1.95


Bishop Angelos argues that bilateral and multilateral ecumenical dialogues have essentially failed, that participation by Orthodox theologians in the ecumenical movement has adversely affected their ecclesiological outlook, and that this has dissuaded the heterodox from returning to the Orthodox Church and has led the Orthodox ecumenists to suppress Orthodox missionary activity. The text is illustrated with numerous photographs.
