HOSPITAL REFUSED
Archbishop Christodoulos says he wants to be treated at home
Archbishop Christodoulos has declined hospital tests, telling aides he wants to be treated at his home in Palaio Psychico, it was revealed yesterday. The head of the Church of Greece is suffering from liver cancer and continues to be in a critical but stable condition. Meanwhile, speculation about a possible successor to Christodoulos is intensifying. “I would say it shows a lack of respect but at the same time it is also human,” said Bishop Chrysostomos of Zakynthos.
Clearly, there is a need to find a replacement Archbishop who is not a xenophobe, racist or extreme Nationalist. While he is ill, maybe the Archbishop should step down. As his illness slows down his capacity to work, his successor will have a huge administrative task ahead of him quite apart from the need to repair so much damage done by Christodoulos.
