When the accepted law of the land is diametrically opposed to the law of the Gospel, then the Church does not have to obey civil authority. In fact, the Church is obliged to oppose systemic evil, whatever the cost. Countless martyrs died because they refused to oblige the idolatry of the evil rulers of their day. The Church must not sit around and wait for hearts and minds to change; instead she must actively proclaim and live out the Gospel so that hearts and minds WILL change. It is impossible to fully proclaim Orthodox Truth without condemning unjust institutions. The light and love of Christ inevitably burns wickedness and condemns inhumanity, injustice, and evil. The Church, in her authenticity, is the most revolutionary organism in the world. Selam, +GMK+
