Zoxsasi,
You are hitting a touchy subject for me esp. with a name: ilovesaintmark.
I think Coptic_deacon makes a partial distinction between the terms.
If you go by definitions (in very simple terms without going into a lot of dictionary stuff):…
I apologize TITL, I had gotten your post confused with Mabsoota.
I inadvertently may have copied your thought.
Remember: to err is human to forgive is divine.
Do not be so harsh on us little people.
I can give you a list of people to be harsh u…
CopticStrength,
I think as a nuance, your life already belongs to God. He created it. He owns it. However, it is what you do with it that gives you the ability to unite with the Divine Will.
Fr. Peter's comments are very strong. The harvest is…
TITL,
Not to be specifically picky, but, I made reference to Lot being a brother, which is what Abram (Abraham) said of him.
You made mention of him being like a "son". How is it I am copying from you? I am not a plagiarist! I am a republican.
Cyril,
When it is completely extinguished.
Kumbaya is a little camp fire song. It is used as an expression by idealistic annoyances in order to convey that everything is fine and dandy, everything is happy, and there is no wrong, and that we shou…
Minagir,
I don't mean to be nasty, but I get really upset when something as beautiful in all of its aspects such as a censer can look so bad because of neglect and not caring. Sometimes I just want to take the deacons and give them a pep talk and …
I would also add relative to the "love" aspect that Abraham loved and elevated his nephew, Lot, so much that he would call him "brother".
In terms of dealing with the kids. They are kids. If they get out of hand, give them the "look".
If you are…
I just thought that is in important portion of the story. I think the lesson in that matter is not to look back at any sinful aspect in our life, and that we should be focused on following the way of the Lord. Looking back with any favor at sin wi…
Cyril,
The purpose of the censer is to offer sacrifice.
It has many symbolisms:
1. The bottom bowl--symbolic of the earth and the womb of the Virgin Mary.
2. The burning charcoal--symbolic of the Divine Ember (Christ) Who was in her womb and…
Cop,
I believe on a simple basis that on display in several Governmental facilities among which are: NASA (in Florida and Houston), the New York City Museum of Natural History, and the Smithsonian Institute among which have repositories of lunar r…
Hos Erof,
There is certifiable proof that the moon is not made out of cheese. However, I am sure that you know there are people who still hold out that the moon landing was a hoax.
Cop,
Have you read the articles that you presented? or you just did a Google search?
These articles do not define anything of which you are trying to prove.
In statistical analysis there is a parable of sorts in showing correlates and cause/eff…
Cop,
In this last post you clarified things. In your initial post, it was very vague and I did not quite understand what you were trying to say.
I think by starting posts with haha puts the reader into confusion as to intent.
Cop,
I don't understand your inference relative to His Holiness. His Holiness saying the Lord's Prayer is not the equivalent of people babbling in false, non-recognized tongues. Coptic is a real language. The babblings at these revival meetings …
Cop,
Did you notice when they were done? (year)
Did you look at these papers? Just because the title says something does not mean their is validity in the claim.
Every Single one that you listed is not a real study.
If you go to the AMA, the Ame…
Cop,
There is not one FDA study to ascribe any benefit to marijuana.
There is not one Peer reviewed study to ascribe any benefit to marijuana.
There is not one Pharmaceutical company study to ascribe any benefit to marijuana.
Being high does not…
I will answer with questions: How does God feel when one of us sins? How does God feel when someone is loved until the last moment of his/her life and still does not repent and has to be damned? How did God feel when Satan, initially God's most b…
Cop,
Actually, I have quite a bit more background in this issue. Marijuana has no medicinal purpose. I know quite a bit about chemotherapy and going through chemotherapy.
And I don't get my information from Google or WebMD.
Marijuana will not d…
That is all nonsense. I repeat: there are no medical papers to prove any benefit of marijuana. The FDA has not sponsored any research. All of these false claims are from people speaking loudly in order to justify using something that is illegal …
