Since Cyril Lucaris was glorified in 2009 by the Patriarchate of Alexandria I figured it would be worth asking. shrug

I wouldn't think so as he sought to bring in Calvanistic ideas in the Eastern Orthodox Church. None of the TOCs have discussed him to my knowledge.

A council acquitted him. I would generally agree with historians on such matters, but sometimes the Orthodox Church has taken a different stance.

The Traditional Orhodox Church wouldnt glorify him as he was an ecumenist to some degree and condemned. Though I'm not surpriesed that the Patriarchate of Alexandria cannonized him, sounds like they did it to get closer to the Protestant churches.
