I understand that all the older monks have sex with "handsome youths" and "beautiful young men", and that this is an accepted part of the Orthodox monastic novitiate??
The orthodox way is the only one.
Why?
The copts, the armenian broke from the church around V sec.
In 1054 the catholic church broke from the Orthodox one.
In 1518 from the catholic church broke the protestants.
From the protestans broke the anglicans and so on.
After this around XVII sen. appears the baptist church..
And so on…
In conlucion, the Orthodox church is the only one.

34. And calling the crowd Himself with His disciples, he said: Whoever wishes to come after me to lepede self, to take the cross and follow Me Wed. Mark Chapter 8
This its identics with monasticism!
ai dreptate, nu coincid versetele din Codex Sinaiticus cu cele din Bibliile pocăite, dar coincid cu cele din Biblia Ortodoxă!
you are right, not the same verses of the Codex Sinaiticus with penitent of Bibles, but coincide with the ortodox Bible! And Psalm 50 is David's in Codex Sinaiticus and orthodox Bible!!!
Daca aveai studii teologice afirmatia ta avea o alta forma, dar si tu esti un fel de gazetar de weekend cu idei copy/paste .
Exista asemanari pt ca totul se trage din ortodoxie, este logic.
Dar se pare ca nu ai inteles postul anterior.
da aici ai dreptate!

The monk on the first photo is father Kirilo from the Chilandar monastery on Mount Athos. He is a holy man, I have heard many stories about him. My friend who was an atheist became faithful when he met faher Kirilo and now he is a monk too. 🙂
Then come to orthodoxy.
