[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=10286.msg125418#msg125418 date=1293406210] I am glad for you Ioannes. Just like I am glad for myself. I have come to enjoy and appreciate the Liturgy more and more with each one. In the rarity that I have a…

Fr. Peter, we are Copts. No matter what anyone says. Coptic has become less of an ethnicity and more of a religious alignment, to say your Coptic almost always means that you are Orthodox. Personally I think you are more Coptic than the majority of …

It truly is an amazing thing. I think I had forgotten its importance and its power and this little episode that I went through only strengthened my bond to the church and Christ Himself.

The funny thing is I have been an outspoken critic of Haile Selassie I, not that everything he ever did was horrible and wrong, but especially when witnessing to Rastafarians. I actually have an authentic picture of him that my ex-girlfriend gave to…

[quote author=Father Peter link=topic=10278.msg125399#msg125399 date=1293399842] I can see the benefit of a global directory, but it is the stress on having power in numbers that confuses me. Since when has the Church ever needed numbers to have th…

[quote author=Father Peter link=topic=10285.msg125398#msg125398 date=1293399758] Most of the Orthodox countries in Eastern Europe still have royal families in exile. There are even claimants to the Byzantine Imperial throne. Our own Prince Philip i…

I almost always break fasts, and not because they are difficult, atleast the restraining from food part, I just get bored or frustrated. I think a lot of people deal with this issue to be honest but the good thing is you feel bad for doing it so you…

Depending on what history you are going to study I would be weary if I were you. When I study things like the Holy Fathers I just become more depressed that so many people have gone astray from their teachings. If its just the actual history of the …

I think we should go ahead and boycott the website.

[quote author=ophadece link=topic=10278.msg125376#msg125376 date=1293352121] I actually didn't even get as far as Ioannes did... maybe someone else could add to what he pointed out if they watched that clip... [/quote] I kinda felt bad for what I s…

I honestly thought it was a joke. Everything about it seems so cheesy, on purpose. I will not sign up for another site that Copts will use to try and prove just how Coptic they really are. LOL This site is great, how many more do we need? The video …

I was memorizing the Gospel of St. John, then quickly realized that using the CD where it was sang, was not so good of an idea. I could not recall a verse unless I sang it.

The interesting thing about the Eastern church is that they accept the tome of Leo I. Which clearly separates the natures of Christ into two distinct individuals, and they call us heretics. They denounce papal primacy of Rome, yet accept Leo I, the …

The vatican did the same thing to Poland. They basically told them they could remain Orthodox but that they should come under the umbrella of the vatican and they would take care of them financially. Eventually the RCC over run the Orthodox church t…

[quote author=George_Mina_Awad link=topic=10216.msg125002#msg125002 date=1292876748] [quote author=Ioannes link=topic=10216.msg124946#msg124946 date=1292815865] I still need to get some of this anger I have towards Egyptians out of my system. [/quo…
