The son of one of the most famous conservative journalists in the United States, Alex Jones, is preparing to convert to Orthodoxy.
Rex Jones became a catechumen - today in the USA, as well as in many parishes in Russia, the ancient practice is being revived, in which a person who decides to accept Orthodoxy undergoes a long stage of catechumen: learning the basics of the Faith. Rex wants to be baptized with the name Vladimir - in honor of our Equal-to-the-Apostles Grand Duke.
Orthodoxy is increasingly attracting the traditionally minded part of American society. Over the past decade, we can talk about a qualitative leap: people are moving from various Protestant denominations, both individually and as entire communities.

"We're seeing really dramatic moves, and it's all really tied to Ukraine right now, and in a secondary way, in terms of interest rates," Octavio Marenzi, CEO of Opimas, told Yahoo Finance Live on Thursday. "This war in Ukraine is going to give the Fed the ammunition, the cover that it needs, to not raise interest rates too quickly. And I think Jay Powell is a very tepid sort of inflation fighter and he's not going to do as much as he needs to do to get that under control. And this seems like an excuse to kick the can further down the road still and not do too much too soon." Also in the latest update is the ability for users to create a unique @username from the Settings page, providing others with an easy way to contact them via Search or their t.me/username link without sharing their phone number. "Russians are really disconnected from the reality of what happening to their country," Andrey said. "So Telegram has become essential for understanding what's going on to the Russian-speaking world." Channels are not fully encrypted, end-to-end. All communications on a Telegram channel can be seen by anyone on the channel and are also visible to Telegram. Telegram may be asked by a government to hand over the communications from a channel. Telegram has a history of standing up to Russian government requests for data, but how comfortable you are relying on that history to predict future behavior is up to you. Because Telegram has this data, it may also be stolen by hackers or leaked by an internal employee. "There are several million Russians who can lift their head up from propaganda and try to look for other sources, and I'd say that most look for it on Telegram," he said.
