  • [quote author=dthoxsasiPhilanethrope link=topic=14610.msg166210#msg166210 date=1381243448] Im not trying to divert the topic here, but do you, or anyone here agree that Catholics are Apostolic and its better to marry a Catholic than a protestant? …
  • [quote author=Truthseeker link=topic=14587.msg165928#msg165928 date=1379088401] I am no longer accusing you of worshipping idols, that was cleared up in previous posts. My question is about contacting the dead. Understood. Anyway, you make a good…

  • [quote author=mnc_hnn link=topic=14584.msg165784#msg165784 date=1377822632] Life just has no taste, no feel. If only suicide wasn't a sin (sorry, had to say it). [/quote] Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life." -John 14:6 "Taste…
  • Why are the responses I provided not sufficient to you tho? If you could please re-read them, maybe I'd be able to add more?
  • [quote author=Truthseeker link=topic=14587.msg165737#msg165737 date=1377278220] [quote author=ReturnOrthodoxy link=topic=14587.msg165735#msg165735 date=1377277786] You cannot play both sides of the field. You promote soul sleep as a general rule, an…
  • Thank you Ray for weighing in. I was going to reply and say almost the same, but I'd like to add. Saints are not dead. They are alive!
  • I am providing you verses, and you are providing me personal interpretations. It would be helpful to see a verse in particular so we can discuss. No verse should contradict each other. For this particular instance however, how would you justify it …

  • - And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.” The spirit does not die.
  • 'Idolatry is a pejorative term for the worship of an idol or a physical object such as a cult image as a god.' - Wikipedia It is important to note that in no way do any orthodox worship an icon as a god. Any type of worship is nothing more than a w…

  • Agreed, but for sake of discussion, I'd like to be picky and complicate things a little. [quote author=dthoxsasiPhilanethrope link=topic=14537.msg165431#msg165431 date=1373618669] we do not talk about the unity as if it is like two elements mixing …

  • [quote author=Servos link=topic=14452.msg164879#msg164879 date=1369936477] I like when priests and monks have a short beard. They represent our Church and should be tidy and neat. In middle ages all males had a beard. That was such a time. It is n…

  • Lord have mercy. We are all offcourse entitled to our opinions. This is definitely an important subject and needs to be addressed despite it’s sensitivity. I will urge us all to fear and love the Priests, Bishops and Pope assigned to us. Given we a…

  • Then what are the 'Cymbals of Joy'? If it were truly just for rhythm, the triento would be sufficient and the cymbals would not be played with a 'musical' beat but instead with singular beats. There seems to be biblical support that cymbals are us…
  • My post was not meant to humiliate anyone! Simply to encourage those who constantly educate themselves and continue to share their education with unknowledgeable people like myself.
  • Side note: I got to say it is impressive that some have been involved in these discussion and sharing their knowledge for at least 10 years - http://www.coptichymns.net/PNphpBB2-printview-t-906-start-0.html God bless :)
