(Sergianism apparently thriving in Bulgaria. Ok, will the Moscow patriarchate let this stand? Well, it should be a given that they would not; but unfortunately it is not even a question.)
Soviet Agent Wins as Bulgarians Hold Patriarchal Election
February 24, 2013 by DnJosephSuaiden
The Synod of the New Calendar Bulgarian Church has elected Metropolitan Neofit of Rousse as the next Patriarch … , eliciting little surprise where two out of three of the candidates were state agents and the other was sympathetic.
The past two weeks have had the various candidates saying odd things, in (hope) of being treated as the frontrunner. … Unfortunately, the two (leading) Soviet-agent candidates embarrassing themselves left only one obvious contender. And how convenient that Gavril was the only one whose file is clean! Why, if it wasn’t so obviously framed as the work of the Holy Spirit by the mainstream media we’d have a glimmer of hope. Instead, this appeared contrived; an entire Synod of Securitate agents with a “clean leader”, discovered before the election. If it wasn’t reality we’d think it was a bad joke.
It appears the state-agent Synod was having none of the ruse and chose proudly to choose one of their own (Agent Simeonov) in an easy majority, having 90 of the 138 needed votes.
