My Case Against The Old Calendarists
I will begin by quoting the Orthodox Craig Truglia, who wrote: "St optatus wrote to the Donatists, who had rigorist credentials, how do they disagree with the whole world? And so, while there are heretics within the Church, where is the evidence that all the synods are teaching an explicit heresy...not a bad bishop here or there, but a synodical meeting espousing heresy and all the synods doing this? I think we are no where close to how bad things were in the 7th century so I'm not seeing the imminent catastrophe. This is without getting into the fringe and weird things within the entire genuine Ortho movement, which does not mean every single person or bishop is bad but the whole movement has strange things as well. I don't see the appeal of jumping off a supposedly shrinking ship to a capsized one. That's how I personally feel."
One thing I have noticed with clergy professing Orthodoxy, is that if they get caught in a violation or contradiction of Church teaching, and called out on it, they don’t explain themselves. They make no attempt at reconciliation; they just cut you off and throw you under the bus. Of course, this is totally contrary to Christian teaching.
Many scholars believe the Epistle of Pseudo-Barnabas (c. 70-130) to be the earliest of all post-New Testament extrabiblical sources. This epistle is addressed to "sons and daughters" in the faith. They are urged to avoid any "schism" and make peace between contending factions.
