[quote author=Zoxsasi link=topic=9943.msg121662#msg121662 date=1288688525] [quote author=Truthsetsfree link=topic=9943.msg121661#msg121661 date=1288688326] I read the Arabic text that allegedly was written by 'The Islamic Iraqi State' which is a gro…

I read in another article that the terrorists who assaulted that Catholic Church from John_S200's link demanded the same thing yesterday - do you mean the channel was playing yesterday's message? Or have they issued another one?

Shouldn't somebody be reporting this priest to a higher authority? If there's even the slightest chance that he's done things like this before, or is likely to do them again, he cannot be left in a position where he is trusted unconditionally by unt…

There are several points you could respectfully respond with: 1. God is not a feeling or an emotional crutch - He is an entirely external being that exists independently of our own feelings. Belief in Him is not a question of comfort or feeling, i…

LOL its another bot I think geomike. A very sincere one, but a bot nonetheless. They're getting very clever now :o

Australians all let us rejoice :D Lol yes indeed, we RULED the Commonwealth Games as usual, there was no competition really. I go to Archangel Michael & St. Bishoy's Church out west - you probably know my cousins, they go to St. George too.

[quote author=Ioannes link=topic=9851.msg120892#msg120892 date=1287287525] Michael Heiser, who is a Greek, Hebrew, and many other languages, scholar has a much better take on the Genesis account. Keep in mind, nobody ever questioned the literal 7 da…

[quote author=Meena_Ameen link=topic=9851.msg120863#msg120863 date=1287268259] I understand exactly what you mean by creating a mature oak tree, it makes perfect sense and you make a very good point. My only issue with that is Gods purpose. Lets sa…

[quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=9851.msg120747#msg120747 date=1287061532] epchois_nai_nan, Please don't take these comments as being critical of you, or being offered aggressively. I am not dogmatic about these things, although I do tend …

[quote author=sordoeht link=topic=9851.msg120723#msg120723 date=1287004913] When we are claiming about origins of the Universe, we have to be very careful, especially for our future generations after Science have piled up it’s evidence that the …

[quote author=John_S2000 link=topic=9851.msg120666#msg120666 date=1286930351] The outcome is not the same neither are the implications. For instance how can we reconcile God's description that He created Eve from Adam's rib? How can we explain what …

[quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=9851.msg120664#msg120664 date=1286926222] God did not create a generic moon - and of course there is no such thing - but the moon of earth which necessitated that it be entirely a particular moon with a part…
-
Father, from what I've understood, you're arguing that because a river is generally formed over thousands of years, it cannot be helped that one created ex nihilo would generically appear thousands of years old. But the evidence of history is not ge…

[quote author=Amoussa01 link=topic=9851.msg120639#msg120639 date=1286905433] Epchoice: Have you even read Genesis? It explicitly mentions that God created man (Adam) and woman (Eve) and that there was a fall (death and spiritual). Where did you get …
-
[quote author=Amoussa01 link=topic=9851.msg120611#msg120611 date=1286865186] Macro-evolution is against Christianity. The Bible clearly states that the fall was made after Adam and Eve committed sin. As such, there was no such thing as death prior t…
-
I don't think the Orthodox church has any official position on the issue of evolution, unlike the Catholic Church which officially accepts it. We are free to make up our minds based on the evidence rather than restricted to a single position. [quo…

[quote author=George_Mina_Awad link=topic=9825.msg120454#msg120454 date=1286638904] What I would like is a mass project to revive it, to the point where we can understand every word without looking at the translation across the page. Maybe it can st…

[quote author=Meena_Ameen link=topic=9818.msg120275#msg120275 date=1286412226] The world did start with the Big Bang. But what was before the Big bang? Did you know that the big bang theory states that TIME itself was created at the big bang? And th…

[quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=9814.msg120253#msg120253 date=1286395369] ii. The Jewish practice of capital punishment was EXTREMELY cautious. Indeed it has been shown that the modern USA executes many more people than would have been exec…

Wow I never knew that! I always thought they meant the same thing - thanks for the clarification :)

No, there are no texts written after Jesus' time in the Apocrypha - it's all ancient Jewish literature. Besides, according to Wikipedia it's not even a Gospel; it's more common name is 'The Acts of Pilate' written sometime around the end of the 2n…

Wow it's awesome! Good job :D I noticed that you can highlight the Coptic text - I tried to copy/paste it but it ended up just as English letters in any other app. I was just wondering, since you figured out how to put Coptic text on the iPhone, is…

I also have an anxiety disorder - I've had it since I was a young teenager. I would recommend that you get it diagnosed - just go see a doctor, a GP should be able to tell you for sure the severity and type of disorder. From what you said, it sounds…

[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=9730.msg119231#msg119231 date=1284248835] Feminism is incompatible with Orthodox Christianity. Orthodox Christianity espouses respect for women. The ultimate example being the very Mother of God. I would ho…

Wow thank you all for your replies :D Very helpful! That's made it a lot clearer. I'm sure I'll have more questions soon enough ;) God bless you all, PFM

That's wonderful news! God has blessed them both :D I have to say that I think it's wonderful how Copts all over the world were brought together by this effort - it creates a wonderful sense of unity. God bless and pray for me
