@ItalianCoptic
I agree with everything you have said. I never did anything to show disrespect towards the opinions of people on this forum, unless theological debates aren't allowed now? Especially in Non-Orthodox inquiries.
Anyway, that being sai…
@Jeremy
I believe that it's worth it to mention that the way in which St Louis Marie de Montfort writes cannot suggest that Mary could have such an important role in our salvation. She can help us greatly, for sure, however he does not suggest she c…
@Augin
Thanks for your reply :)
The focus when praying the Hail Mary's is not on the Hail Mary's themselves, but on the mysteries. All of the mysteries are focused on Christ, or otherwise they are focused on St Mary, but even these ones direct to C…
@minatasgeel
The whole idea of indulgences are not part of my tradition. Accepting the doctrines and dogma of the Roman Catholic Church are significantly different to actually practicing them. While our church may technically 'accept' the doctrine…
@minatasgeel
Thank you for changing the category, my apologies for not putting it in Non-Orthodox Inquiries in the first place, I was hesitant as the post was not really an inquiry.
Sadly I cannot comment too much on indulgences as I am not very…
@Jojo_Hanna
Please do share what you found heretical about anything I said, if you feel so strongly about it.
And perhaps if you broadened your perspective a little bit you would find more things edifying and not simply be stuck in the group of Co…
@Ophadece @minatasgeel
This makes more sense now, thank you. If I may ask both of you, would you consider St Mark to be the founder of my Christianity? Since we have split off from you guys more recently I am assuming we have also preserved the teac…
@minatasgeel @ItalianCopticThank you for the clarification. I am not the most historically knowledgeable person as you can see lol.
In response to ItalianCoptic specifically, that is not what I have been taught, I merely researched on the internet …
@George27I am not sure if you meant that I was the first to introduce this idea of ownership, or if you meant that Jojo_Hanna did as he clearly stated before I wrote that: "-If you guys take on all of our Traditions and Rites, then should you not ac…
@OphadeceIf the Orthodox church had not split off, you would still be called Catholic. Where is your evidence that the Rites are exclusive to the Orthodox church? This argument seems to be based on plain ignorance to me, or maybe a little bit of Ort…
@George27
I only said that because Jojo_Hanna thinks that the Coptic Orthodox church owns Coptic Traditions and rites. I didn't say that as a matter of disproving credibility, or else I obviously wouldn't be on this forum asking a question like you…
@Jojo_Hanna
- Who made the traditions and rites exclusive to the Coptic Orthodox church? Coptic Orthodox split off in 451, while the Coptic Church itself was founded in 42. So you can't say we take on your traditions and rites when they are not yo…
@Jojo_Hanna could you be more specific? I'm assuming that you're asking how they can be two different ranks, since you guys call Pope Tawadros "Pope" and combine both patriarch and Pope into one. They actually are separate ranks, however since all t…
@ItalianCoptic thanks for your insight. We actually have a patriarch by the way, Ibrahim Isaac Sidrak, however the pope is still above him.
@Jojo_Hanna thank you, that is mostly what I thought, how we pray for different people especially in the h…
