(p. 161) “Rama Coomaraswamy, the son of Ananda Coomaraswamy, led another Catholic group in America. According to one source, Rama Coomaraswamy’s group (and so probably Borella’s as well) integrated Schuonian Traditionalism into their religious practice...”

Doubly Chosen: Jewish Identity, the Soviet Intelligentsia, and the Russian Orthodox Church
(pp. 20-21) Talmudic Jews played central role in theology and philosophy of Vladimir Solovyov. He saw them as chosen by god and choosing god as well as critical to understanding the Divine Sophia.
(pp. 21-22) Solovyov's Jewish collaborator believed him to be a "righteous gentile". Solovvyov believed that Talmudic Jews "could provide the necessary spiritual-national element to reconcile East and West into the future Universal Church."
Vladimir Soloviev created the Russian theological concept of 'Sophiology' and Florensky and Bulgakov spread it. Russian Orthodox goal was to spread its beliefs, concepts, and mysticism into world dominance. escholarship.mcgill.ca/concern/theses…

St. Sergius Theological Institute in Paris partnered with the YMCA for financing. Additional money came via John D. Rockefeller which was used to spread Russian charities for support of academy worldwide. (pp. 225-238)

Put on your surprise face… the former punk rocker groupie turned obese kabbalistic brother is a Chabadnik.
And he happily quotes Chabad rabbis on the Association of Hebrew Catholics’ (AHC) forum. Remember Raymond Burke sits on the board of the AHC and has participated in their anti-Christian Seder meal. hebrewcatholic.net/forums/users/b…
