Thoxsasi and Hos Erof,
I don't agree.
You all know my standpoint. I'm not going to repeat myself for the trillionth time. My words are the same as GODlovesme. Although it may sound "Egyptian" to most of you, I'd like to stick with it regardless.
…
Thanks for putting me on the spot ;)
I would choose option two, but option two is never as clear as you put it. We can't tell if a person truly poured out their heart to God. People can say they truly repented, but words are words. Just saying.
The…
Hos Erof, I stick with my comment.
I wasn't referring to only physical faithfulness, although it's what I was replying to in regard to Zoxsasi's post. Mental unfaithfulness won't change after marriage either. A habit or action before marriage won'…
Lol thank you lightening :)
Your post saved our conversation. Hopefully.
Zoxsasi,
St. Paul is clean, but he's also a murderer. He's in Heaven.
The fact that he once was a murderer will never be erased from history.
As an extension to what user00 is saying.. no I'm kidding.
Zoxsasi, no offense, but you assume too much. Which part of my post led you to think that I treat sinners as sinners? Quote me :P
(sound familiar?)
We shouldn't condemn people, EEEVEN if …
Repentance is only good for your spiritual life, but if you were a prostitute, you still are in the eyes of people. Nothing will change that- not even repentance.
St. Moses the Strong and St. Paul are still a murderers.
Wait, I agree with Godlovesme. Just because God forgives us doesn't mean there aren't consequences on earth for our actions.
A bad reputation doesn't leave a person, even after repentance. If a guy or girl lose their virginity, they shouldn't expe…
You're all probably saying: 'Only ilovesaintmark can come up with such a stupid twist.'
Correction: Replace "stupid" with "hysterically funny".
I'm still laughing!
What!? I thought it was December 21, 2012! Those liars keep changing the date >:(
That's the last time I take their word for it!!
I'm going to resort to TrustingInTheLord; seems to be the only reasonable alternative.
When I was in Elementary School I begged my parents to put me in band. They hoped for me to develop a new talent, so they paid the $300 fee and waited to see if I was the next James Galway. I played with it for maybe two days then got bored and stop…
Why would you assume my gender based on sexual orientation?
I have a feeling I've just awaken GAY4XC from the dead.
Yes, I am female. Sorry to put some of you through shock.
Lol just this morning my grandpa asked me, "Would you like to marry a guy with or without a mustache?"
My response was a short summery of Father Peter's post. He gave me a blank stare (he probably didn't understand my Arabic), so I just told him wi…
You're too funny Ioannes! ;D
I'm not sure how (or why) any tasbeha member would know the answer to this? Maybe Father Peter.. but I think you should ask your local bishop. They have the Pope on speed dial, and he's really the only person that can …
In case anyone else was lost: OP = Original Poster.
We don't say, well I would have liked Abouna Peter but he is a bit overweight and I have decided not to like anyone overweight. Or, I would have like to have gone to hear Abouna Peter preach but I …
I didn't know you live in Egypt!!!
Does the country feel any different now that Mobarak is gone?
I just googled what GP doctor is. You're driving me nuts with these acronyms :P
I emailed all my cousins in Egypt and asked if they knew of any job …

Amen. TITL.

I scrolled up and down the first page 3200 times only to realize that you were never referring to me, but the acronym TITL.
And I thought Geomike s…
I think I might be the only one that thinks marriage is scary.
This is one of the biggest decisions you will make in your life, and as it has been said, it is final.
Yikes!
User00,
You have officially won "Scariest Post Ever on Tasbeha.org"! Congratulations!
To whoever said "where are the girls on the forum to comment on this":
The original poster requested for only people with experience to reply. The only married…

Our lifesaver...
Lol I really can't believe you just said that dude.
Father Peter,
What steps should one take if he or she wanted to rejoin the Orthodox Church? Would it be the same as excommunication? Can excommunication be restored?
