this probably seems childish compared to all the theological talks going on on this thread here, but this is basically how a sunday school teacher taught us it: We belive Christ (Miaphistic) nature was 100% divine and 100% human simultaneously, wit…

personally speakin, i would see nothing wrong w/ it because as you said "they're just for laughs/kicks. however, the whole basis of the pagent, is itself rooted in something very immoral. A Beauty Pagent basically makes women compete against each…

yup not to forget however that the British Orthodox Church and the French Orthodox Church are related to the Coptic Orthodox Church, thus making them Oriental Churches as well.

well as we all know, Judas after handing in Christ, went to the Pharasies, and threw the bag of silver and asked to free him, for he was an innocent man. I mean what other reason, (other than repentance) would lead him to demand such a thing?

The feast of dedication is what modern day Jew's call Hannukah. I really don't know why the Jews didn't belive but, i heard alot of reasons why including. -they expected the Savior to come in full glory, not so humbly -he did things that were agani…

Well ya you're right we do sin everday, because wer'e not perfect and were all prone to sin. So even if we confess, say before Communion, were verly likely to sin during the mass. Thus sinning, can't be counted by the numbers. I know the recomende…

lets not forget that although Christs human body died on the Cross, doesnt mean that the world was witout GOD i.e., God was still alive (as He always is) and as popeKyrillos said, he was in the tomb for our sins as was Jonah was in the belly for his…

The Coptic and the Ethiopian Churches are sister churches. They both share the same theological positions, and have a very close relationship, that was recently strained, but now thanks to the Grace of God has returned almost to its original form.

well from what i understand his decision was political, purely political. Its a good gesture on behhalf of the Copts in Egypt, but unfortuanetly many dont appreciate it from the muslim community or they simply dont know about it.

Well acutally the reason i posted this question up, was because i was considering going there around that time. I know the Pope didn't like the idea too much, so i decided to research it and i found a voice clip belonging to him, and it was pretty …
