Indeed, many of the Orthodox participating in these "dialogues" know or suspect that there is no place for Orthodox witness, that the atmosphere itself of ecumenical "liberalism" cancels any truth can be said unto them: but silent, because the "spirit of the times" today is often louder than the voice of the Orthodox consciousness.
