Nectarios' Statements on Artificial Intelligence and the Monks of the Abbacy of Abbacum
January 2, 2026
The defrocked abbot of the Monastery of Saint Abbacum, Nectarios, claims to be a victim of artificial intelligence following statements by Archbishop Georgios about the monks conducting liturgical ceremonies. He criticizes the Archbishop for choosing to announce discussions on the matter during New Year's Day and raises questions about the Archbishop's relationships with other clerics. Nectarios argues that the existing evidence against him is fabricated using artificial intelligence. He pointed out the inconsistencies in the application of sanctions for clerics in the Metropolis of Tamassos. Finally, he warns of the unrest caused by the Archbishop's public remarks.
