The CIA's man in Constantinople

Everyone knows that the Moscow Patriarchate is in bed with the Kremlin. Few realize that the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople is deeply beholden to the United States government.

While in Russia the marriage of church and state has a long tradition and is meant to support each other and the nation, the CIA's involvement in Constantinople has a much more nefarious purpose.

This ignorance is surprising, given that many Greek Orthodox leaders are quite proud of the fact. In 1942, Athenagoras Spyrou - the Archbishop of America for the Greek Orthodox Church - wrote to an agent of the Office of Strategic Services. "I have three Bishops, three hundred priests, and a large and far-flung organization," Athenagoras wrote. "Every one under my order is under yours. You may command them for any service you require. There will be no questions asked and your directions will be executed faithfully."

I often criticise the Roman Patriarchate and the Bishop of Rome here, but I never spoke about this on the channel, but DAMN have I discussed it in private extensively. People got really upset with me too. They told me it's impossible. I repeatedly said that the Patriarch of Constantinople is a CIA asset. This article feels so vindicating.

...Athenagoras was not merely an Americanist. He was also known as a renovationist, as liberal Orthodox are known. In 1964, he met with Pope Paul VI in Jerusalem; together, they officially lift the mutual excommunications placed by their predecessors in 1054. This gesture sparked outrage across Orthodox world. Athenagoras was accused of compromising the Orthodox Faith for the sake of a paper union with Rome.

The current Ecumenical Patriarch, Bartholomew, is cut from the same cloth as Athenagoras. He is very close to Pope Francis; the two share a passion for mass immigration and environmental activism. Also like Athenagoras, Bartholomew shares a close relationship with the US government - a partnership that has proven mutually beneficial.

Why do you think they both push for the globalist goals so much? A coincidence? Of course not! It's because they are both globalists, CIA collaborators and care little for tradition or their churches.

The Ecumenical Patriarch is the spiritual leader of Orthodoxy. However, he only has direct jurisdiction over a few thousand Orthodox Christians in Turkey. The rest of the Greek Orthodox world are autocephalous, or self-governing. This includes the Church of Greece, the Church of Cyprus, and the American metropolises (or dioceses). Many look to Bartholomew for leadership, but they are not directly under his authority. It is also worth noting that a large majority of Orthodox Christians around the world belong to the Russian Orthodox tradition. These churches do not look to Bartholomew for leadership in any meaningful way. Some, like the Patriarchate of Moscow, are in schism with Constantinople.

Neither is it a coincidence that Bartholomew took the side of NATO when Russia's military operation started. It wasn't because he just "really opposes war, bro. " It's because he's in CIA's pockets, one way or another.

Bartholomew is not the "pope" of Orthodoxy - although he would like to be. Over the last few decades, the ecumenical patriarch has also worked to consolidate hard power over the various Greek Orthodox churches.

Why is this happening? Same reason it happens in Rome. The CIA uses these people to push their agenda - liberalism, mass migration and the opposition to countries and leaders they don't like. This is an effort to liberalize Christianity and Christians. If you are one, you need to stop making excuses for these people who are obviously in it to destroy our traditions. If you're not one, then keep in mind that all those things you hate about the modern world, we oppose!

The Ukrainian church schism was also orchestrated by the CIA, because it held Ukrainians and Russians together as brothers, which the CIA wanted to stop to provoke more nationalism and Russophobia. Read the article, please.
