  • So, I asked my dad and he said that each of the archangels has a feast day (it's in the little calendar you get from church)... it's just that Archangel Michael gets a commemoration every month to remind everyone of all that he's done! hope that he…
  • Good question... never thought of it myself! I'll ask and let you know :)
  • Hey Mozes, Just wondering how your exam went! I'm sure, God willing, you did very well :)
  • Hey, Going out in a group is much less intimate and much more acceptable... same with talking in church (just make sure you don't talk for too long so rumors don't start ;) ) So, yes both of those would work so much better! Good Luck!
  • Hi CertifiedOrthodox, First off, I would like to ask you who Mansour is? Everytime you've quoted me, you've replied to "Mansour". I think there is someone else on this forum with that name, but it's not mine. Second, you say that you feel sorry fo…
  • You don't necessarily need to give out your number to the guy for him to have it. He could potentially get it from anywhere (ie. friends or other people from church). The most important thing is that you know what to do when he does make that call o…
  • Dear CertifiedOrthodox, I'm going to give you advice that goes against what everyone else has been telling you: Don't go. The same EXACT thing happened to me only a few months ago. I went to a party, talked to a guy from church, he liked me, and …
  • Thank you so much, Father Peter! That clears everything up!
  • Hi! In our church, we say "We praise You, we bless You, we thank You O Lord, and entreat You, O our God," which I guess is closest to number 1. I'm not sure but, in my opinion, they all carry the same meaning and so they're all correct! God Bles…
  • Hi Father Peter, Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this to me! However, I still don't quite understand how the filioque diminishes the Holy Spirit. I'm sorry that I didn't understand it the first time, but could you explain this again…
  • Thank you so much for these great answers! That clears things up a lot :) God Bless
  • Hi Mozes, Here's a link that I found for you that answers your question perfectly: http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~insects/aids.htm Basically, it's because they digest the HIV virus before it goes on to the "host" but that article has all the details! I…
  • With all due respect to grace and all those who agree that hugging members of the opposite sex is acceptable, I completely disagree! Yes, it may not exactly be a religious thing and more of a cultural one, but people follow it because it's self-pres…
  • Much more sense.. thank you! so it's basiclly like a competitive agonist :) please pray for me tomorrow... I'm so worried that I won't be able to remember all these drugs!!! you're a pharmacist so you probably know what it's like... I need all the…
  • Thanks! So now I understand how alpha 2 works but alpha 1 I'm still not sure I understand completely. You said that Epinephrine can't bind to the alpha 1 receptors... why? Is there something blocking them?
  • Thanks ebnyasoo3! I really appreciate your help :D Another couple questions: 1. How does the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and cAMP by alpha 2 agonists reduce hypertension. I know that alpha 2 works in the heart better than alpha 1 and that beta …
  • This is a silly question but what's the best way to remember drugs? ie. I have pilocarpine, pirenzipine, and phentolamine that all end in "-ine" but do completely different things and I can never remember which one is which unless I look at the not…
  • lol I don't even have aim! Thanks for the prayers!
  • Thanks Taishory! The book looks great but my exam is tomorrow... so if I get it, I'll use it to study for the final! Thank you so much for taking the time to look it up for me though :)
  • Thank you so much, Mina! yup, I do want to get in ... I'm applying this year so I need lots of prayers for that and for my exam tomorrow! btw... I haven't finished studying yet and I might have some more questions. If you leave, will you be on late…
  • So just to summarize, Atropine blocks muscarinic while hexamethonium blocks nicotinic and that’s why it has that reverse effect on both SNS and PSNS? Also while you’re here  :) I just wanted to clarify one more thing: muscarinic agonists work in th…
  • I understood the first part but what do you mean when you say:"blocks the recoptors on the cell" ps. are you a pharmacist? thanks
  • Thanks, Taishory... but what about atropine? what's the difference between them? Mina, Thank you for offering to help! I know you've asked me to im you but, if it's not too much trouble can I ask you to explain it here or via a pm? I just don't fee…
  • It doesn’t matter if you doubt his existence... just put a picture of Christ in front of you (literally) or hold a cross and talk to Him “as if He’s there.” He is with you at all times and He’ll enter your heart and allow you to feel His presence...…
  • Everyone has ups and downs in their spiritual lives... it’s normal because we’re human and doubting is one of our many vices. The best thing to do, or at least what I find to be the most helpful when this happens to me, is to talk to God. Don’t pray…
  • As far as I know, Anba Antony has cancer, but God has given him strength to endure this hardship with joyfulness. I've never had the honor of meeting him myself but I've heard many wonderful things about him, so please keep praying for him! God Ble…
  • Mina, i didn't know the Church had an official teaching about this...is there anywhere I can read more about this?
  • Hey! Of course it isn't a problem, especially with such a small age difference! It's just a matter of preference :)
  • Thanks, copticcross3! I'm so glad you liked it :D
  • Just out of curiosity... if we weren't able to compose music for this poem for whatever reason, does the tune I already used for it sound good? or should I try to find something else as Plan B?
