A Wise Man Once Said : Avoid those who prefer conflict in discussion
my friends teacher also said God could be a gurl.
Is it just me or when students/ teachers say stuff like that you just imidiatly jump into the conversation and correct them and try and tell them the right teaching even if you don't know much a…
I agree, just get your mind off things pray, or be with friends and family. My personal faviorite would have to be praising and talking to saints and believe it or not sometimes you'll get an answer back pretty quick usually within the little things…
I'd also like to add that when I asked my preist about the fasting before communion he told me it's 9 hours and/or completing the day. He told me that taking communion is almsot like a new beggining so Christ's Body and Blood should be the first thi…
Having been in bad situations where phycologists talk to you heres a good tip, stay away from some of them! Although im sure theirs alot that have good opinions theirs also alot with bad. Some are heretics and will lead you away from the church clai…
Lets not forget the miricle of Moakttam (excuse my spelling) where the Coptic Orthodox Church moved a mountain literally and beat other religions in a debate.
Correct me if im wrong, but i think our desiers and passions come from our human nature/personality the way we grew up, the people and things we were brought up around and people that influence us have an impact on our desires and passions. Now pass…
Sorry but its not fair to say Asian parents are known to be very strict, Asia is the largest continent on the world and holds more then half the worlds population ( about 3/5ths to be exact ) ; its countries range from Russia to Iraq to India to Chi…

:-\ what does not including St. Mary mean im not understanding, i thought we were talkin about heavens here? ???
I think the reason you guys think their are 7 heavens is because sometimes they say there are 'several' layers to heaven. But we must remember that in English 'several' does not mean seven it means a few, therefor saying their are several layers to …

Personally I dont think it matters whether you hurt or kill someone in the army or not, I think you'll get punished still the same because God sees no ranks. Wheater your a celebraty, politician, Solider, or whatever, thats just my opinion ::) . .…
Very true, but back on the age topic I think age doesnt really matter but the younger you are the less likely its love and the more likely its just someone falling into the decit of lust. Less likely but still not impossible...
I got no experience in this ethier :-\ but im guessing that because Lust immitates Love its very hard to distinguish them with bold black and white characteristics. Lust can do a pretty good job imitating Love! So i guess the only way to tell is to …
