==Quotes==
"Anselm says: Why did the Incarnation happen? So that the [[Son of God]] could be punished in the place of man. [[Gregory the Theologian]] says: Incarnation happened, "because humanity must be sanctified by the Humanity of God". Quite the contrary in other words. And the Theologian continues: the only thing God wants, is to stop wear. Now try and build legalism on a position such as that of the Greek Fathers! It is impossible. That's why many of my fellow students in France marveled at us Greeks, saying: «vous êtes anarchistes» (you are anarchists)!"<ref>Diamantis, Apostolos (2007-01-13).
