I've never seen glee, but what is so special or immoral about it that the Church should have a stance?
Thoxsasi,
A member of the glee club is gay which leads to a number of inappropriate sexual scenes and the director of the glee club is having an …
I'm still laughing at crackers and soda for communion! :D
I like this sermon a lot, Father. I definitely benefited and learned a lot :)
Thanks for sharing!
I know what's funner than 72 virgins!! Getting your post count to an even 950, instead of the atrocious 949!
Boy, that was a close one. Almost got a panic attack.
Sorry.
Well since I'm posting again, I guess I might as well add something useful a…
Well that sums it up lol.

When Christians allow for themselves to die for the sake of Christ, it is called "Martyrdom".
When Muslims allow themselves to die for Allah, it is called "Suicide".
There is a distinct difference, I think.
The Bible is clear about suicide and …
Btw ILSM, they are tied together by "loves" and you stopped rhyming towards the end. You call that a poem?!
Things that rhyme with "me":
-tree
-key
-pee
-tea
-see/sea
I think you should try again.
You can practice your dictionary learning skills on tasbeha in your posts! It'll be a cool learning experience for all of us, except ilovesaintmark who wrote the dictionary :P
Ok, it's a little bit important, but an ILSM fanclub will benefit both genders. It isn't sexist or racist. And since I thought of it, I'm the president of the club! ILSM can be the secretary or something.
I think someone with facebook should start…

Hahaha. You guys are silly. Every thread is everyone's thread.

Tell that to Thoxsasi. He's not as sharing as you are.
Fasting or not, I don't usually eat until around 4 PM (when my sister comes back from school). I forget to eat when I'm alone. But now that it's brought up, I might make myself a sandwich right now. :)
If I ever lived alone, I'd probably only eat o…
Wait! We're talking about me again in someone else' thread! It's most definitely not my fault this time.
FATHER PETER! STOP SHIFTING THE THREAD TO TITL!

(man, that felt good. It's not everyday I can use caps lock on a priest and no…
This looks like the kind of book I'd read with a dictionary next to me to look up every other word, then get frustrated and sign on tasbeha.org to tell everyone how horrible of a book it was.
We'll see.
Not to shift the thread away from ilovesaintmark's brilliant jokes or anything, but thought I'd share HH's words of wisdom on fasting :)
SPIRITUAL FASTING
By H.H Pope Shenouda III
Lent is one of the oldest and most holy fasts of the year, where …
If this is your way of showing me love, Father Peter, then I'll accept it. ;)
I recommended the book to all my friends and bought a copy last night. It looks boring though. No offense.
Hang tight DC! The beginning of Lent is always this tough, unfortunately.
Don't lose the peace inside you. You were born for greatness :)
Youre in my prayers!
Waking up early before your dads awake is always an option. So you can recite with the psalm "O God, I have risen up early unto you.."
Unless he snores loud and that distracts your prayer ;)
(Btw that sermon by Dr. Girgis was amazing! I'm going …
You always seem to have the perfect answers dzheremi! The advice from Dr. Girgis was very wise! Thank you :)
I apologize for shifting this thread to myself. I do that a lot and people aren't yelling at me like they're supposed to (ahem, Father Pete…
This thread is making me tear up.
But thankfully, God does not treat us as we treat Him.
I'm really glad you said that. My feelings (of not wanting to speak with God) will never be His feelings towards me. It's hard to comprehend, because of our li…
I like dzheremi's analogy a lot, but mine is very dangerous. I didn't mention this before, but because of my shameful feelings, I often times don't want to pray. How can I stand up and talk to God after what I've done?
I guess you can say it's a t…
The story you told about the little kid drawing a picture is exactly the level I want to reach with my prayer.
Since we're using metaphors, I'm like the little kid that broke dad's favorite vase, and cannot even look father in the eye. He wouldn't…
