>Is he right?
Probably. Orthodoxy is flourishing in Russia and is almost state-sponsored. Just take a look at pic related. It’s the cathedral they just built for their armed forces. Who else is out there building grand cathedrals? Now, where I think he’s wrong is Orthodoxy is actually Orthodox so I don’t know how it can be anything new. Fr. Seraphim Rose wrote a book Orthodoxy and the Religion of the Future. I haven’t read it so I’m not actually certain that he’s saying Orthodoxy stands in opposition to this “Religion of the Future” or that Orthodoxy is the Religion of the Future. I think it’s the former but it’s relevant either way. Catholicism and Protestantism (with all its derivations) are quite obviously physically (and spiritually) dead. Whatever spirit once inhabited the Western Church has undoubtedly left it and gone to the East and any study of Western church history, particularly it’s esoteric currents, makes that perfectly clear.
