Dear Iconophili,
I do not understand the meaning of the word "Consetion" and could not find it in the dictionary - though I believe it is a term associated with diamond dust. Could you define "Consetion" for me?
thanks ...
Abraham Lincoln, whose body was incorrupt and exuded a beautiful fragrance decades after his death, was a believer that America suffered for her sins of slavery in blood in the civil war, and that was a just recompense for her cruelty to a race of people unjustly enslaved.
I have heard other orthodox casually comment that Communism was perhaps a just reward for the pogroms - I don't think that needs to be a "teaching of the fathers."
I might counter against it in that the sun shines on the just and unjust alike... But it is very human to see that there is a certain balance; Hitler reaped what he had sown, and I think in fairness the Russian people through Pogroms reaped what they had sown in Communism.
It is certainly stupidity, even in a historic sense, to be hate filled for one will in some way reap what one sows.
