  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] I haven't tried listening to it, but you can find this song here.
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Here is the thread I think you are talking about.
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Allow me to echo what John has said.  Neither of us has justified anything.  On the contrary, we have pointed out the fallibility of man which can (and has) caused rifts in the Church.  Does that make it right…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] [quote author=bballdude23 link=topic=4550.msg77714#msg77714 date=1191224899] [quote author=Copticsol08 link=topic=4550.msg77641#msg77641 date=1191077018] alot of interseting points but what if ur ugly or cute …

  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] This is interesting.  I don't think I've ever noticed this until now.  Thank you for pointing it out.  Here's my poor attempt at an interpretation.  Joseph, being Mary's husband, was permitted to have relation…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] What do you mean by that?  You have just gotten a written statement by H.H.  If you wish further evidence that the OO and the EO do in fact share the same Christology, here is an article by H.E. Metropolitan B…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Welcome to the site Elena.  I hope you find it insightful.  Feel free to post any questions you have.  I'm sure everyone here will be more than happy to help in anyway possible.
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Scriptural or Patristic quotes on what exactly?
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] The Oriental Orthodox Churches are not Monophysite, and the Eastern Orthodox Churches are not Dyophysite.  Both Churches are Miaphysite.  The cause of the split in 451 was mainly due to semantics and misunders…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] [quote author=ANDPOC link=topic=5785.msg77527#msg77527 date=1190836479] We don't support the Big Bang. Why? Because it brigns up more questions then answers how did this explosion occur, how can all this matte…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] I agree.  In this present age, ego is not the sole contributor to the schism and there are other issues which must be looked into with patience, humility and discernment.  However, looking at the Council of 45…

  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Suicide is a twofold sin.  Firstly, it is murder.  You are taking away your own life, which you have no authority to do.  Since murder is a sin (which is forgivable), if confessed, one can be forgiven.  Howeve…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] ^^ Everyone needs to read the above post.  Simply fantastic.
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Thank you kindly for your permission, though I didn't realize I needed it.  Once again, lighten up.  No one else seems to have a problem, so I fail to see why you do.

  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Dare I say it... yes, I dare. Ego.
    in EO Comment by Holmes September 2007
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Dogmatically?  As far as I know, nothing.
    in EO Comment by Holmes September 2007
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] And that contradicts what Orthodox11 has said how?
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Any and all historical documents are inherently biased, and so we will never be able to know for certain what happened.  Was St. Cyril involved in the murder of Hypatia?  Most likely.  How involved was he and …
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Methinks you should lighten up a bit.  This was a joke that was between myself and another individual.  It was addressed to this individual, and thus if he had a problem with it, he should be the one addressin…

  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] I would love to see anything that says that the Church denounces the Big Bang.  I do not see it in anyway contradicting Genesis.  That is true of other scientific theories that 'appear' to go against Scripture.
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] As far as I'm concerned, the OO and EO have identical Christology.  So everything Orthodox11 has said is in line with the Church's teaching.
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Yeah, I'm not one to present heretical teachings on an Orthodox forum, although.... :D
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Bump! Ortho, Were you able to find a source about the assumption of St. John the Evangelist?  Thanks bro.
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] [quote author=Orthodox11 link=topic=5746.msg77325#msg77325 date=1190336710] There's a story of a saint (hopefully someone here will know the name) who walked across the desert and came across the skull of a pa…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] [quote author=smile4ever link=topic=5754.msg77301#msg77301 date=1190327937] Christ became man, so that man may become God not sure that it's ok to say such statement... please explain what do u mean exactly .…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Or perhaps it was just a joke (hence the use of smilies).

  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] To get coptic to display, just use the following html tags: [ coptic ] [ /coptic ] (minus the spaces).
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] You can find it here.
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Now, a serious contribution.  I would like to add Abouna Matta El-Meskeen (Matthew the Poor) to the list so far, if for nothing else then his book Orthodox Prayer Life: The Interior Way.  It is truly a phenome…
  • [coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] At the request of a certain someone (who shall remain nameless), I have taken it upon myself to respond to this thread.  All I want to say is: NANEE NANEE BOO BOO! :D
