  • Gabriella, my new book entitled "Reasonable Christianity: A Response to Scientific Atheism" deals with this subject. I can send it to you just shoot me your email.
  • I deal with this on a daily basis. I have been in a hospital, on all kinds of meds. I have been off the meds for 7-8 months now. A word of advice, do not tell anyone. Tell only those you trust with your life. When I got sick, I panicked. I did not k…
  • [quote author=pharoh123 link=topic=12662.msg148798#msg148798 date=1323394323] You might be right Ioannes. I'm not sure if you mean Jews are worst than Muslims; I'd still think it is Muslims because of what happens in Egypt, but then again, we've ne…
  • [quote author=LoveisDivine link=topic=12662.msg148786#msg148786 date=1323381220] When you speak of zionism are you referring to the zionist, conspiracy? Please pray for me, LiD [/quote] Modern judaism is zionism, it is racist and disgusting.
  • [quote author=copticuser20 link=topic=12662.msg148773#msg148773 date=1323377517] I live in a highly populated Jewish town.  Many of my friends are Jewish by birth.  4 of them declared their Atheism to their parents already. Most of them aren't stric…
  • [quote author=pharoh123 link=topic=12662.msg148760#msg148760 date=1323355694] I don't if I'd put any weight into this; I've never heard of a mob of Jews burning down a church, slamming planes in a building, blowing supermarkets, etc. I think I'll re…
  • [quote author=ReturnOrthodoxy link=topic=12662.msg148730#msg148730 date=1323311779] [quote author=Mark 7:8-13] You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions.” And he continued, “You have a fine way of setting aside th…
  • Let us submit to God in all things and not contradict Him, even if what He says seems contrary to our reason and intellect; rather let His words prevail over our reason and intellect. Let us act in this way with regard to the (eucharistic) mysteries…

  • I agree that it may have been over the top. There are few things that really set me off, and insulting my Savior by saying He is not God, is unacceptable. I read so much of the church fathers I often think that I can speak like they spoke. At the ti…
  • Thanks everyone. There are many things I could have said but I was trying to get HIM to realize them, hopefully the listeners did. If anyone is interested in apologetics email me [email protected]
  • Thank you all for your support!

  • See the reaction? When I come to church I do not want to see women dressed immodestly, why? It can bring people to sin, just as this picture could. The church is not a disco, nobody is there to "hook up" or get blind drunk and wake up next to a stra…
  • [quote author=Khas. link=topic=11659.msg139878#msg139878 date=1308423592] Dude, why? That's bad, take it off. You're applying that we don't the the right to give women rights to do what they want? How bout us men who take off shirts and go out i…
  • I feel for you man, don't listen to Caiphas he's just a keyboard cowboy, hiding behind the anonymity of his computer. That is the only reason he speaks like he does. DC is correct, you should all sit down with Abouna and talk, be patient and unders…

  • [quote author=dzheremi link=topic=11659.msg139872#msg139872 date=1308422997] I do not understand why this is happening. I do not think it is appropriate. If you are making some kind of point, I am afraid that it might be lost in the way you are choo…
  • Don't speak your mind Gebre, whatever you do!
  • The point is that appearances can tell us about a person. It is not right to make assumptions based on appearance, because we certainly could be wrong. But outward appearance can tell us about the person. For instance, when I see a woman covered wit…

  • I hate when I go to kiss the hand of an Abouna and they pull it away quickly. When I was very new in the church one guy did that and I did not talk to him or even say bye. I was not sure why he did it but it made me feel stupid, so I said bye to eve…
  • [quote author=JG link=topic=11645.msg139831#msg139831 date=1308384233] I was merely making a general point; with regards to the topic at hand I don't really have an opinion. [/quote] General point? I was expounding on what you had said and used the…

  • [quote author=Unworthy1 link=topic=11646.msg139758#msg139758 date=1308299177] You see Ioannes, wishes do come true! (I couldn't help it!) On a serious note, if all the ignorant, stupid, prideful, and those with deep psychological issues shut up tha…
  • [quote author=Unworthy1 link=topic=11652.msg139813#msg139813 date=1308356060] Actually from what I understand, people in the field of medicine don't take psychiatrists and psychologists seriously. Mainly because it isn't as difficult to attain those…
  • [quote author=Κηφᾶς link=topic=11560.msg139204#msg139204 date=1307588455] He was. Ioannes is just illiterate. [/quote] I misunderstood, I thought he wrote an article and was asking our opinion.
  • [quote author=JG link=topic=11645.msg139774#msg139774 date=1308334357] I agreed with Cephas' general point: the sayings of the Fathers are not absolute law - two Fathers may conflict over a certain issue, they are each entitled to their opinion. The…
