Caption the photo Increase Your PM Length

Here's a picture of Patriarch Alexei II and Vladimir Putin that was first posted yesterday (I forget by whom). However, just as we were beginning to have a little fun with it, the entire thread it appeared in was deleted.

The real tragedy here as I see it is that the picture has great captioning potential, so here it is again for anyone who'd like to have a go at it.

-It's right down the street from here, "Ivan's Carnival & Novelty Shop", you can't miss the giant 18th century Czarina mannequin out in front. Just tell the manager Sparky sent you.

he's handing out his palms for the "artos". the bread. it's a typical gesture. you can find it in all orthodox churches.
the strange thing for me is the green color of the "amfia" of the patriarch.

the artos (it's an old word for bread, in russian it must be called something else) is usually given after someone has taken the holy communion.

communion isn't the bread (artos) in orthodox churches.
communion is a spoon with little wine and ministucle piece of bread. but the artos (bread) is that, pieces of bread that you eat after you have taken the communion.

Tired of ads?

last threadjack (sorry)
to take the holy communion you have to not have eaten anything this morning. (and also to have confessed - the method is also different from catholic churches).

so you take the communion (which is from a golden chalice the priest feeds you a little spoon with a special wine and a tiny piece of bread).
after that they give you the artoss. this is pieces of bread (often with a cross engraved by the cooking) that you eat afterwards, if you want. it's sort of what follows the holy communion. to take the artos you put your palms like putin
