If you believe in this theory you are making up your own story and everyone can make up their own version-1 how many human beings were there when sin entered the world?2 what was the commandment that God gave them?3 how many of them committed this s…

Dear CoptiCOPA, You did not answer my questions. I asked you if you believe in the literal trees. Furthermore, you did not answer if you believe that the earth is 4.5 billion years old and that animal death existed before Adam or not. Let's have …

Where did I write that "man was not created as man"? That does not contradict the concept of evolution. I believe God "created man as man", and this occurred through evolution. Let me ask you about your theology. Do you believe animals died befo…

I also enjoyed this video, which seems to do a decent Biblical analysis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf5ovSpS2GU

My dear friend, Given that I have spent so much time and effort expounding how theologically, evolution does not contradict Orthodoxy, I am not sure if you want me to get into a scientific debate, or do you have any underlying theological problems? …
-
No problem! I appreciate your respect and kindness. I have been where you have been, feeling uneasy. I had no one to direct me on how to deal with this except to say that these fossils are just wrong. When someone deals with science, it needs muc…

Because they're not theologically relevant or important. That's like asking why didn't the Holy Spirit inspire Moses to write about dinosaurs, or the solar system and galaxies? The Torah is primarily a theological work. Inspiration of the Holy Sp…

Very simple reason: Biblical Genealogy: Adam ... JesusEvolution: Unicellullar organism ... Adam You see why I don't think it's relevant? ;) The Torah was traditionally believed to be written by Moses. At best it's a tradition from Moses himself.…

Joshuaa, Maybe a link and page number?

I think this is the problem, "As Zoxasi mentioned, it would be practically impossible to reconcile the literal figures of Adam and Eve with evolution... unless we'd like to believe in a God who inserted himself in somewhere between 2.5M-200K years a…

first thing to check would probably be the Synexarium. I would use the Ethiopian Synexarium because it seems more complete.

That's just a title. The composer sampled a piece of Coptic music into his art. Musicians like to sample.

Wow! That is so obvious. This guy has been listening to a lot of Coptic hymns lol
-
And to add, this is not merely an Internet controversy. Now we have EOs who got a hold of HH's anti-theosis writings and attack our church as heretical because it denies this tenet of Orthodoxy, despite the fact that the Coptic Church, even anti-Ch…

There are other apps that might work, like Filer, where you can browse sites and download. There is "Filer Lite", which is free (but will limit you to seven files to download), and "Filer" you have to pay. I forget how much, it's been a while, but…

Thank you Zoxsasi, I look forward to it. Keep me in your prayers.

Dear Tobit, There was a point in time when a humble Christian in the ancient Church did not know how to best articulate beliefs in the Logos and the Holy Spirit. One can say just because they were not as perfect in their knowledge does not remove t…

Well, if transitional is what the look for, rest assured, many have been found, but he who has eyes to see them, let them see. The argument that they only saw Neanderthals is a silly one to make and only proves they do not care about the fossil evi…

Tobit, You make excellent points. There is however a growing concern and when I get the chance I'll explain more.

oh...you got my attention on this one....lol! if you get this sermon, send it to me Sure Mina. I'm guessing you want to analyse it for traces of theosis?You read me like an open book ;) Thank you Meena

That is essentially the sad part about human nature. There is not one who is without sin, not even if their time on earth is a minute. "All fall short" St. Paul taught. Even if there were 100 human beings, just one person it would take that would…

Here are two other high quality pictures I personally like, but I am not sure if you're looking for that as well: http://uploads7.wikiart.org/images/gustave-moreau/saint-michael-vanquishing-satan.jpg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/…

Just to add to Kata's great post, on the interpretation of the Holy Scriptures, and why I make it clear that we do not see our Bible as the Muslims conceive of the Quran, Fr. Patrick Henry Reardon explains very well in this podcast: http://www.ancie…

There are one of two choices. Either that nature of the gift of immortality is created or it is uncreated. If you're giving me the "I don't know", then why you do get bothered when I tell you "I don't know" in my answers?

What is the nature of this gift?

Zoxsasi, I spent 5+ pages answering your questions. I think it is common courtesy for you to do the same for me, to answer my questions. If you believe in literalist dust theology, you have to be prepared to give me a cogent understanding of this …
