Sometimes people wonder...

why the Orthodox church is so firm on proper order and decorum in worship. The video below is of a "clown mass" and yes its real and while its extreme it's an example of what can happen when people decide the Liturgy is about them and not about God and abandon the time tested forms.

  1. Great, another thing to add to my list of "things clowns do that give me the heebie jeebies". Know you've kept this tired soul up at night, in terror.

  2. Well, you can always take shelter at St. Elias. Ain't no way I'm getting dressed up in a clown suit and blowing bubbles around the altar.

  3. I am amazed that a little red car didn't come zipping up the aisle!! What are people thinking that this was respectable and to the glory of God?
