Godlovesme,
I can see where you would be bothered by the scenario that you presented. I would be also. This may be a facet for you to develop such a class.
I will also give a follow-up to your previous comment about the boys "showing-off". That…
As an FYI, I blast the boys, guys, men, even worse than in my above writings.
I agree with most of Godlovesme's descriptives about the guys, but it does not justify this fantasy presented by AnnaSimone.
Godlovesme,
Let me step down from my nasty tone, and speak to you in the same reasonable tone that you just utilized. The Church does care about girls--deeply.
The issue revolves upon the aspect of each person reaching internally for their talent…
Hey guys, I have done things that a priest does, so you can start calling me Fr. Ilovesaintmark.
I sat in the presence of 10 bishops two weeks ago, so you can call me Anba Ilovesaintmark.
My dear, you are overreaching in a silly way. If it sounds…
I came, theoretically, from a mother and father. [Although my friends believe I was hatched from an egg in the middle of the sand.]
My father is not a sexist and my mother is not a sexist. My mother has a role and my father has a role. Sometimes…
The Church is not sexist.
The people who make such comments do not want to respect their Church as a Mother. They may be misguided. They may be caught on the fashion of Westernism.
The Church is open for everyone. Everyone has a role. Each per…
epchois,
The issue of the celibacy of the bishop was addressed in the Canons of Nicea. The issue of the role of bishop, as addressed by the Great St. Paul, was relative to the milieu.
My dear, you are not a deaconess. There is no such role or order for kids barely out of their diapers.
Let me guess, you are somewhere around 60 years old as prescribed by St. Paul and the Holy Synod. That is the only term of Deaconess that I kno…
Gay,
Somehow I knew you were going to chime in about the issue, and yet again, you twist facts in order to try to legitimize an immoral and sinful state. Just to make it easy, that would be inclusive of prostitutes and fornicators so the heterosex…
CIA is an abbreviation. I do not see anything disrespectful in it.
GB- greco-bohairic
OMG - Oh My God
OO - Oh Oh
What's the problem with an abbreviation?
Sorry, cutie, but no one at ten years old should be called a deacon. It is nonsense. It is silly. It sounds like a pretend outfit and role from Toys-R-Us or Kids-R-Us.
You are misrepresenting yourself by calling yourself a "deaconess".
I do app…
Please do not use the title "deaconess". It is improper. It is incorrect. You do not possess such a title, and it underscores an immaturity in terms of reaching for a position. It also underscores that you still have a lot to learn.
It is impro…
I'm curious, do they have the same proclivities as the male deacons:
1. Showing up dressed improperly
2. Singing with a nasal tone
3. Everybody and their grandmother is named a deacon
4. Idolize CIA
5. Think incessantly about the chants and le…
We eat our Kolkas with green sauteed kusbara (green coriander leaves). We don't use tomato sauce.
The reason we eat Kolkas is so that we wake up with our Ra's (head, calvarium, skull).
Abouna Sarga (Sergius) slightly preceded this period. He was involved in the liberation front from the British Occupation and helped in the role of Boutros Ghali.
Cancelling parties is also a lesson for all the selfish little brats that put on Deacon's tunics and have stupid plays that are demeaning to the tunics that they wear.
It is a chance for the little brats to remember the concept of death and persecu…
If someone is rude with me, I usually smirk. I usually ask questions pertaining to the rudeness, and speak in the second person to pervade alternative factors, hypotheses, scenarios.
I still say there should be a Priest Appreciation Day. It would…
I say: go up to her, stick out your tongue, and go 'na na na na', when she smiles at how stupid you look, as if you can talk privately, and don't be too clingy when you talk.
She will most likely tell you that you have been smothering her, and tha…
Did the apparition say what size coffins?
Was it unisex style?
Adult vs. child size?
What color?
Soft lining or no lining?
Was it exactly 200 or possibly 196 with 4 spares in case one had a scratch on it?
Does the six months include the new zodiac…
I believe them to be on par.
I know it is completely un-Christian for me to write that, but that is the beauty of the weekend. I will head to confession. I will be absolved in time for the Liturgy on Sunday.
Thanks be to God and His Mercy.
Probably not. This one has nothing to do with sleep. It's they holding your breath and trying to sing dramatically that get me in these theatrics.
The guy leading in the leisure suit doesn't help my ability to palate the singing as he is conducti…
So would you do like the Miss Universe Pageant and have rating in categories, average, and then come up with the best Liturgy?
Here are some categories:
1. Voice ( 1 - 5)
2. Tone ( 1 - 5)
3. Background deacons--chorus (1 - 5)
4. Background dea…
My Dear Father,
I think the inference is purely by the "voice" of the priests. So, if a priest was tone deaf, and had the faith to move a mountain, that would not qualify as "the best" in terms of Liturgy.
It is splendid how superficial we have …
The Copts are generally brainwashed from birth in Egypt to be anti-Semetic. They carry forward on it. They have no reasoning for it, other than that is what they are bred with in the Egyptian School System.
To answer the question on a general bas…
