It occurred to me that maybe he is now a regular communicant at an Orthodox parish (though one doubts he has renounced 'miaphysitism'!).<br /><br />I'm with you on AFR, though note that it is Bobby Maddex speaking at the conference, not John Maddex. Bobby has an AFR podcast, but he's not the main dude behind it.Aaron Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17775589009145031773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714437334790446678.post-48384176233798962572010-01-27T09:41:27.994-06:002010-01-27T09:41:27.994-06:00This looks like a great conference both for its sp...This looks like a great conference both for its speakers and for its meeting opportunities. I wonder, however, why Dr. Guroian was labelled on the website as 'Eastern Orthodox'? I was under the impression that he belonged to the monophysite communion as an Armenian. Nevertheless, I have always wanted to meet him-- he is a profound thinker and writer, and a thinking conservative. His introduction to Russell Kirk's book <i>Ancestral Shadows</i> was very good, too.<br /><br />My wife loves Molly Sabourin. I'm sure she'd love to meet her in person. Maybe I can use that with her as a selling point? <br /><br />The cost of this conference seems very reasonable. Two days of lectures and meeting opportunities, and registration-plus-lodging for two people is only $100. <br /><br />I'll be honest though-- I'm not expecting much from Maddex. I've never been much impressed with him or his very laissez faire standards when it comes to what can be passed off for Orthodoxy on Ancient Faith Radio. Not that I don't love it-- it's just a very mixed bag.Isaachttp://www.thecrabtree.netnoreply@blogger.com
