I think it would do orthodox Christians well to remember that the children of Judah went into the Babylonian captivity not because of the sins of Babylon but because of their own. Now, as it should always be, is time for reflection, confession and repentance and to remove the motes from our own eyes before seeking the remove the specks from the eyes of our neighbor. If we are captives in Babylon, we have only ourselves to blame. ~Anonymous
