ellauri190.html on line 239: During the 9th century, “Varangians” (Vikings) began to serve as a kind of Praetorian Guard to the East Roman emperors. Tästä kertoo jännittävästi Mika Waltarin historiallinen romaani Mikael Karvajalka, joka taitaa olla meillä jossakin. To reach the city of Constantinople, they sailed from what today is called the Gulf of Finland up the Neva river to the lakes Ladoga and Ilmen and then to the Western Dvina and the Dnipro, going all the way down to the Black Sea. By the mid-9th century, they settled around and in Kyiv and founded their own dynasty of the descendants of Rurik. A grandson of Rurik, Svyatoslav (Sfendosleif) greatly expanded his realm to the east and south, while his mother Olga (Helga) traveled to Constantinople and was baptized Christian. Svyatoslav’s son, Volodymyr (Waldemar) married a daughter of the Eastern Roman emperor, was baptized, and baptized all his subjects in the year 988. (Back then, the city of Moscow, or the country now known as Russia – Россия – did not even exist, so there!) Over the next centuries, the “Rurikids” gradually lost their Scandinavian identity, marrying women of the Slavic, Hungarian, Greek, and Turkic ethnicities.
ellauri190.html on line 243: By the 11th century, Kyivan Rus was a huge European power. Kyiv was bigger than London or Paris. The city had numerous buildings made of brick, including churches. It also had many private and public bathhouses, like Constantinople (and unlike Western European cities of the time). The realm, stretching from the White Sea to the north to the Black Sea to the south and from the steppes of the Don to the east to what is now eastern Poland to the west, was divided into many feudal fiefs, but the authority of the monarch in Kyiv was nonetheless absolute.

ellauri210.html on line 1142: Γεννήθηκε το 1920 στην Κωνσταντινούπολη και μετανάστευσε με την οικογένειά της στην Γαλλία στην ηλικία των δύο χρόνων. Υπάρχουν ελάχιστες πληροφορίες σχετικά με τη ζωή της. La famille Prassinos fuit Constantinople et les persécutions que subissent alors les Grecs et s'installe à Nanterre en 1922. D'origine grecque par son père et italienne par sa mère, Gisèle Prassinos est la jeune sœur du peintre Mario Prassinos. Ο αδερφός της, Μάριο Πράσινος ήταν Γάλλος καλλιτέχνης και εικονογράφος. Ο πατέρας της διηύθυνε το περιοδικό «Λόγος» στην Κωνσταντινούπολη. Ο άντρας της, Πέτρος Φρυδάς μετέφρασε στα γαλλικά Καζαντζάκη.
ellauri260.html on line 344: Antiikin filosofinen termi hypostaasi eli substanssi tarkoitti usein yksilöiden "alustaa" tai jopa "olemusta" (kr. ousia, lat. essentia). The term person comes from the Latin persona, whose origins are traceable to Greek drama, where the πρόσωπον, or mask, became identified with the role an actor would assume in a given production. Such usage is carried over today in the word “persona,” referring to characters in fictional literature or drama, or second identities which people adopt for behavior in given social contexts. Its introduction into the mainstream of intellectual parlance, however, came with theological discourse during the patristic period, notably the attempts to clarify or define central truths of the Christian faith. These discussions focused primarily on two doctrines: the Trinity (three “persons” in one God) and the incarnation of the second person of the Trinity (the “hypostatic” union of two natures – divine and human – in one “person”). Confusion marred these discussions because of ambiguities in the philosophical and theological terminology, such that, for example, the thesis – ascribed to Sabellius – would be advanced that in God there was one ύπόστασις and three πρόσωπα, where ύπόστασις conveyed the meaning of “person” and πρόσωπα bore the sense of “roles” or “modes” of being. In order to present these mysteries with precision, the concept of person and the relationship of person to nature needed clarification. The debates culminated in the First Council of Nicaea (325) and the First Council of Constantinople (381), and in the drafting and propagation of the Nicene-Constantinopolitan creed. Mutkallisen kristillisen opinkehityksen tuloksena Khalkedonin kirkolliskokous v. 451 päätyi Jumalasta puhuttaessa samastamaan termit persoona (kr. prosopon, lat. persona) ja hypostaasi (kr. ja lat. hypostasis) ja viittaamaan molemmilla kristinuskon Jumalan kolmeen ilmentymään, Isään, Poikaan ja Pyhään Henkeen. Se oli paha erehdys. P.o. 1 aineellinen alusta jolla kolme naamaria. Ks. myös selitykset termeihin Jumalan ominaisuudet, kaksiluonto-oppi ja idiomikommunikaatio.
ellauri373.html on line 187: The Revue des etudes Juives, financed by James de Rothschild, published in 1889 two documents which showed how true the Protocols are in saying that the Learned Elders of Zion have been carrying on their plan for centuries. On January 13, 1489, Chemor, Jewish Rabbi of Arles in Provence, wrote to the Grand Sanhedrim, which had its seat in Constantinople, for advice, as the people of Arles were threatening the synagogues. What should the Jews do? This was the reply:
ellauri447.html on line 297: John Chrysostom, the Patriarch of Constantinople, granted the nitrite Tall Brothers asylum, which got him deposed. Some Origenist monks in Palestine, referred to by their enemies as "Isochristoi" emphasized Origen's teaching of the pre-existence of souls and held that all souls were originally equal to Christ's and would become equal again at the end of time. Both factions accused the other of heresy and other Christians accused both of them of heresy. Emperor Justinian ordered for all of Origen's writings to be burned. Even Gregory the Great was opposed to Universalism.
ellauri447.html on line 301: Apocatastasis, in Christianity, the term refers to a form of Christian universalism, often associated with Origen, that includes the ultimate salvation of everyone, including the damned and the Devil. Apokatastasis was definitely condemned as a heresy by the Synod of Constantinople of 543. What the devil, burn in hell! No restitution for the wicked! Down with universalism, up perversalism!
ellauri464.html on line 177: "In my book The Return of Holy Russia I point out that Ukraine, and especially Kyiv, have a peculiar attraction for Vladimir Putin, and not only in the sense of his apparent aim to regain the “near abroad,” the lands lost to Russia with the breakup of the USSR. As I show in the book, Kyiv in the time of Kievan Rus’, was the birthplace of what we know as Russia, and it remains in the Russian cultural consciousness as a kind of Golden Age, what is called “the Lost Kingdom”, their equivalent, say, to the Arthurian legends. And in AD 989, when Vladimir I converted from Slavic paganism to Greek Orthodox Christianity, the Russians became the “Christ-bearing people,” a character that would later give rise to ideas of Moscow as the “Third Rome,” following the fall of the first and the loss of the second, Constantinople, to the Turks in 1453. Out of this came the notion of “Holy Russia,” a mantle that, cynically or not, Putin does seem to be gesturing to, in order to give the Russian people some sense of identity and purpose, something that seems to have eluded them since the economic free fall of the late 1990s. If nothing else, the sixty foot statue to Vladimir I he had erected just outside the Kremlin in 2015 suggests that the current Vladimir identifies more than a bit with his namesake."
xxx/ellauri166.html on line 68: There is a mention of the rod of Moses in a deposition of Nicolas, abbot of the Icelandic Benedictine monastery of Thingeyrar, who had seen it guarded in a chapel of a palace in Constantinople in c. 1150. According to this source, the archbishop of Novgorod, Anthony, stated that it was in the church of St Michael in the Boukoleon Palace, among other precious relics. After the sack of Constantinople in 1204 it was transported to France where Bishop Nevelon placed it in Soissons cathedral and it then passed to the treasury of the Sainte-Chapelle.
xxx/ellauri255.html on line 134: Antony Pyp Pipo: Their commitment was unclear, and this was always the problem: they couldn’t make up their own minds. In the early part of 1919, US president Woodrow Wilson thought that some form of peace could be achieved in Russia, and suggested a conference to be held in the Princes’ Islands lying in the Sea of Marmara close to Constantinople [now Istanbul]. However, the Whites were so furious at the Reds and what had happened up till then – the murders of the aristocracy, the destruction and so on – that they refused to sit down with the Reds. And Lenin and the Bolsheviks – who at that stage thought that they were going to win the war (as they did) – had no intention of sitting down with them, let alone the motherfucking Anglo Saxons meddling everywhere with just their own "vital interests" in mind.
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 1146: It is historical fact that there was debate and discussion regarding the trinity and other topics, and the concept of the trinity was finalized at the Council of Constantinople in 360 AD.
xxx/ellauri410.html on line 1160: And by the way, the Council of Constantinople did not finalize the doctrine of the Trinity, it brought up the question if Pneumatomachians (those who adhere to Macedonianism) were heretics because the Doctrine of the Trinity had been in place for almost 2 centuries at that point. This debate was finalized in the Council of Constantinople in 381. Our debate will be finalized a few lines further down, when I moderate you to hell.
xxx/ellauri422.html on line 114: Tsargrad TV (Russian: Царьград ТВ) is a Russian television channel owned by Konstantin Malofeev. It was named after Tsargrad, the old Slavic name for Constantinople. It is known for its pro-Kremlin and Russian Orthodox stances. Vladimir Putin gives carte blanche to Tsargrad TV which according to Malofeev is the Russian equivalent to Fox News. The European Union, the United States and Ukraine have accused Malofeev of trying to destabilize and financing separatism in Ukraine. Malofeev also financed Charles Bausman's virulently antisemitic "Russian Insider," jonka nettiosoite on "nimeä ei löydy".
