Agpeya,
I vote for your first option: cut him off. It'll hurt for a couple of days but you'll get over it. Don't get into any relationship.
And I agree with Mina, this really depends on your age, maturity, and advice from FOC…
This made me bawl like a baby, although I understood maybe two words from the whole song.
Thanks for posting this, but please don't do it again (unless youre willing to give out free tissue boxes to each viewer) :P
Ok.
First of all, you're embarrassing me in front of all my friends.
Second, you didn't know what ILSM meant either.
Third, I'm going to send ebnyasou3 a recording of your dad, so I end up being the hero of the day.
She disciplines herself. Her parents have an easy job. I think I'm the one that suffers more after confession.
Being a PK is too easy.
...Not joking--of course.
I don't think the teachings of my parents contradict with the church.. at least I hope not :)
I'll leave this one to Fr. Peter because my opinion will be bias.
Some Copts, especially the new generation in the US, do not know neither the rules nor the canons. As a result, we see young and adult females go and take communion while they have their period.
That's not true. Please don't make things up to valid…
Imikhail,
Your posts are a little contradicting and confusing, but if I understood correctly, our church fathers teach us not to brush before communion? Would you mind posting the Arabic sites you mentioned with the list of rules? I would be more …
Mikhail,
You will not find any church teachings to support your view.
Avoiding confession rather than confessing to your father is a dangerous idea; one's eternal life is a stake. When weighing out all considerations, I would say there it is noth…

Stavroforos,
Any bodily fluid that emanates from the body within the 9 hours of communion is considered breaking the fast. This is not my opinion but is the Church's teachi…
Mansour89,
I am not my priest's biological daughter, but he treats me the same as lvnvrfails. He's strict on the both of us, trust me :P
Priests are obliged to treat everyone the same. There are no favorites in confession. We are all working towa…
This is driving me nuts. ILSM, are you saying I should be giving lvnvrfails 10% of my 10%? Are you considering the cost of the bag: $2.00? How do you know the $2 would equal 1%?
I'm beyond confused. DimyanCoptic seemed to have got it; maybe he can …
You poor thing. Cough drops are only $2 at Walgreens. Honey-lemon is the best flavor :)
Have I made it to the nice list yet? You know what? I'll buy you a pack with my Romex Card, so then it'll count as part of my 10% of tithes.
I dare anyone to show me where I said we should not pay tithes.
If I may say something, I believe ILSM was piggybacking on your understanding of monetary tithes, not whether one should pay tithes. It shouldn't be considered as service or a charitabl…
I think I have a pretty good idea of who falta002 is. I can only think one person in the world who would call lvnvrfails13 an angel :P
I'm kiiiiidding!
I can't tell if ILSM is joking or not. I'd believe him if he said he knew the number of Copts in America (or Jersey City alone), but I think 92K was a joke.. maybe.
I think the Admins should consider putting a lock on threads like this (the ones dealing with PG-13 material) where one has to be 18 or older to access and reply.
But it would require people to enter their age, and I guess that leads to privacy iss…
Copticuser20,
Wouldn't it make more sense if you added up the worst genocide attack and natural disaster together, instead of just 2 randoms ones?
Let's do this the right way:
Worst genocide attack-- China 1958
Biggest earthquake in history--Chil…
