Should I convert to Orthodox Christianity?
>>
>>18472864
I'm cradle Orthodox and I'd say it depends on your reasoning/intentions, but you're welcome to come to a service. I guess there's been an explosion in converts lately, but I haven't really noticed at my parish - we have a few but they've all been here for 5+ years now.
>>
>>18472864
No. Christianity is a scam.
>>
>>18472864
Yes. And it's important to distinguish between ethnic parishes and the Orthodox Church of America (OCA) which is tailor made for the unique historical situation of western converts somewhat by accident. There's no shortage of evil people who will try and demoralize or upset potential converts by using their ethnic identity against them (although bear in mind they don't care what you believe as long as you're not Christian), but being in America in the 21st century as a white western convert is probably one of the best and the most historically interesting times to be Orthodox

Wait, so even with all the Orthodox hype for like a decade now, the attendance numbers are still low?

You're not going to be handed a demure obedient tradwife (who is also a psychopath in the bedroom) just for showing up you know. You'll be a Hindu next year when that's the based trad thing in vogu (it's the original Aryan religion you know!).

Turns out lardasses are fine with reading and writing online but actually waddling down to a church is a step too much even for their own salvation.
>>
>>18473815
Either that or he'll end up converting to Islam

>/his/ is turning Orthodox
This was inevitable- the end of the dialectical spiritualism.

If you want to stoke the flames in your corner of Hell to a fever pitch, then yes. Convert to epic beardmanism.
>>
>>18473810
Well I go to a small ethnic parish, but I have heard there has been an influx at larger ones.
>>
Revert to Islam, don't fall for shabbos goys scams like judeochristianity
