  • [quote author=TITL link=topic=11627.msg139567#msg139567 date=1308166159] lol you're so mean Ioannes :P Welcome to the forum, Finote! [/quote] Why? Because I state the obvious? Should I say that the majority of Copts go to church because it is th…

  • It is hard for me to believe that any Coptic church is "diverse", unless there are no Egys to impose their culture on everyone.

  • I think you should go to a doctor and be very selective on who you tell about this.
  • Melchoir, I do not believe a single word you say regarding Ethiopians asking you why you don't "wear a cross". This is very out of sorts for their culture, it certainly is not the norm and you make it seem as if everyone asked you this. You say th…
  • the "sabbath" was moved to sunday, the day the Lord rose from the dead. What better way to keep the Lord's day?
  • You're awesome.
  • There is nothing wrong with pleasure between two married people. There are obvious boundaries, we do not need to speak them aloud. If sexual pleasure between a married couple is wrong, then why does it feel good? It is fine as long it is kept within…
  • If my life is crappy in this world chances are I am doing something right. I thank God for allowing me to live the life I do, it brings me closer to Him.
  • If you want to be well prepared make sure you have a cigarette or a nice meal waiting for you afterwards. There really is not much too it, kind of like basketball, just get it in and thats pretty much it, just remember there is only ONE goal that is…
  • Remnkemi, The existence of Christ can most certainly be proven, I think you misunderstand what I mean. I do not think His divinity can be proven by evidence, only His existence. The archaeological and historical evidence corroborate one another, the…
  • Yes I am using archaelogical evidence. We must remember that just because Christ inevitably existed does not mean we can prove His divinity. For people of faith this book serves to strengthen their foundation by reinforcing their faith, and give the…
  • What do you mean, you need help "getting it on" basically?
  • Mina, for instance the MT removed several books, the ages of the descendants of Adam are different, it claims that Goliath was 3m tall (about 10ft) when the LXX says he was a more believable 2m (about 6'7ft) which is corroborated by Josephus in Anti…
  • LOL @ these people!  First off they are using the Masoretic texts and butchering them on top of that. The word usage hints towards the trinity, not a mother. (that is the first I have heard that one) Rely on the Septuagint, it is better. As for …
  • George, thank you for your reply first and foremost. I am actually a bit shocked that nobody has really even tried, except maybe one post, to show the existence of a historical Christ. I do not think anyone expect us to convince anyone that Christ e…
  • Thank you Josh, I am merely trying to see the arguments used here so I can see if there is a need for the book I am doing.
  • Joshua, first off if your not going to add to this thread, why would you post in it? Read it clearly, I am not an atheist.
  • I felt weird while staring at someone singing.
  • Unfortunately Josh this would not suffice as an answer to atheists. If they are merely asking for evidence of His existence, not necessarily deity. THAT would be your reply? ***Keep in mind everyone, I am trying to provoke thought by playing devil'…
  • If I were an atheist and asked you, "Prove Christ existed" what would you reply?
  • Tasbeha has been getting stranger and stranger. Some of the posts are so absurd, I am left wondering where do these people live that this kind of stuff happens? I have a feeling there are an abundance of non-Orthodox people who post here for kicks.

  • [quote author=George_Mina_Awad link=topic=11507.msg138633#msg138633 date=1306523276] Sorry lol. Seriously though, can you elaborate on what aspect of His existence you're writing about and looking to discuss? [/quote] Prove it.
