Wonder-working icons outraged at newly composed Akathist hymn to Our Lady of Guadalupe.
The recent composition of an Akathist service to the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe has sparked outrage in the Community of Wonder-Working Orthodox Icons In and Outside of Russia (CWWOIIOR). In a recent interview with the spokesicon for the CWWOIIOR, the Vladimirskaya WW icon, absolute intollerability was expressed on the part of the community.
"Since when do any Tom, Dick or Mary icons get Akathists?" remarked the Vladimirskaya, "What's next, moliebens to the Infant of Prague?"
The Kazanskaya WW Icon, acting executive administrator of the CWWOIIOR, has decided to take the issue to icourt, the International Iconographic Tribunal in the Haguegrad, Russia.
"Result look good not for akathist Guadalupskaya case", remarked Fr. Vasili Vasilievich, spokesman for the ROCIR (Russian Orthodox Church Inside of Russia [where it belongs]). "21st century South America not is 19th century Russia! Is outrage!!", at which point he stormed out of the room.
A court date has not yet been established, though jury selection has already begun. Unfortunately this is not going well as there seems to be a lack of juresdictionally impartial orthodox christians.
