Please do write. It would be awesome to hear more of her story. Also, I typically only her miracles and the like about these contemporary saints. Pope Kyrollos was, to me, a man of miracles, but I never actually heard of his teachings. When I met a …

I recently spoke with a few Eritrean Orthodox who have followed H.H. Abune Dioskoros. I'm wondering what the situation is. It seems that almost the entire synod has followed Abune Dioskoros. Can they all be overlooking the truth? Does anybody have a…

Dear Somali, I think you are misinterpreting what I said. I'm not saying "as long as they are trying then they are Orthodox." I am saying that there is no need to remind ourselves and them of past shortcomings from both ends. Rather, we must analy…

And it is odd that you would quote St. Fulgentinus seeing as he is honored in the EO. He is certainly no speaking of the Coptic Church when he speaks of the true church. We are not sure that the EO church is not the true church. It's not our job t…

[quote author=Somali link=topic=13788.msg160652#msg160652 date=1351114355] Have you not read "the devil disguises himself as an angel of light"? Do you not realize that the Antichrist's church will be very similar to the true church? [/quote] The a…

I know I am a fool, but there are some good things on the blog. Today, for example, I posted an article by Abouna Matta. I may not know what I'm talking about, but he certainly does. It may benefit if you check it out. Here it is. A fool, RO

Since, against, this is a topic dealing with someones salvation, and not an argument, I feel obliged to post: The proper method of accepting Chalcedonians into the Oriental Rite is through confession of faith, and only so. Father Peter Farrington h…

Every so often my Blog may have something interesting that you may like. There are some patristic sayings that may incite a desire for more searching. I recommend reading, and if there is anything you like, take a deeper look into it. I don't know…

Somali, my opinions on other issues do not cuse a bias for this young man. My opinions regarding the patriarchal elections have no bearing on anything to do with marital issues. I have never once commented on relationship issues, so I could not po…

I have recently decided to stop posting on this forum, but for your safety, brother, I will. Irishpilgrim's reputation regarding male-female relations are evident. I recommend you read all his previous posts to make your own conclusions regarding hi…

I don't mean to be annoying with this whole Blog issue, neither do I want to annoy anyone with my constant pestering, but I wanted to remind everyone that my blog is being updated almost every day with some of my (useless) thoughts. If you would tak…

Just before I get off completely, I want to apologize for my disrespect to all, rudeness, and arrogance. I hope you can forgive me. Pray for me. Signing off, RO

I was hoping to hide my identity out of fear, but in order to maintain objectivity. I will not be on tasbeha anymore, I am weaning myself off. Sherene_maria, I must ask respectfully why it seems that you are very keen on finding out my name and pi…

LOL, The amount of burns in the carpet in my church that are my fault is ridiculous. I think I may be judged for destruction of God's house

I echo this request. I'm in the dark :D

I know Coptic. The word genos does not (as far as I am aware) imply substance. It means kind, genus, race, etc. but not substance. In any case, the race of humans is different than the race of angels. Those born of half an half are of a different …

imikhail, Thanks for your response: It goes against the the scripture teaching on who the angels are, their nature, how some of them fell from their rank, how do they interact with humans either good or bad. Do you mind exhibiting FROM SCRIPTURE h…

And it is not every saying which I disagree with. I listen to many of his sermons and enjoy them. I am against when he is wrong, or when I disagree. When I feel he is in contradiction with the fathers, I speak out. You don't like that? I'm sorry. …

I just want to ask a question, if Pope St Athanasius is the one who compiled the canonical Holy Bible that the COC adhere to it, and it did not contain the Book of Enoch, why should we follow some un-canonical Patristic writing. St Athanasius, the P…

Deleted. Let me try this again. Shere, I am sorry you feel victimized, but with your sort of ignorance, my response (although rude, and harsh) is certainly warranted. When you clop around bashing other Orthodox churches, disregarding fathers to sui…

If that is true then, the demons are of the same nature as the humans. However, Jesus said that this kind, referring to the demons, cannot go out except by prayer and fasting. I'm not sure I follow. Do you mind helping me out a little bit? How does …

LOL. Abakih is "please" in a language of some sorts. imikhail, it is well and good that you don't like the idea. Trust me, I don't nor do I believe it. But, I must at least admit it as a possibility. What you have shown in your last post is not th…

BUT YOU HAVE NOT SHOWN THAT THEY ARE IN CONFLICT. Show me how they are in conflict. Just one proof. Just one. Please. 3alashan Khatree. Ainu. Abbakih. Min Fadlak.

Give it up, Severian, When Shere says neo-theologian, just know that she is setting up a straw-man argument from her outdated arsenal of uneducated claims. It is pseudo-intellectualism at best. RO

[quote author=imikhail link=topic=9472.msg159793#msg159793 date=1347473605] Whether there were authors who supported the theory of the angels is irrelevant to the reality that no humans were procreated as the result of demons. [/quote] Why not? You…

LOL, nono I'm not fluent, but I can read and understand things so I like to pray the litanies in Coptic. I cant do the whole thing.
