  • [quote author=QT_PA_2T link=topic=7824.msg101755#msg101755 date=1239515678] Although I PERSONALLY can accept the statement you mentioned: i.e. "the mother or person should consider this as a test of faith" - i STILL, however, find it HUGELY INSULTI…
  • Agpeya.. Praise is nice but prayer is essential. Besides, an iPod could suffice for the lack of the Psalmody. I suppose you could even say praise is essential too, but I reckon prayer comes before praise in either case. You can't praise God for hi…
  • Bishoy, most sermons I've attended regarding this issue seemed to hint at the metaphorical side of Genesis.. I'm not comfortable giving out clergy names so as to not misquote.. but many of our own metropolitans, bishops, and priests believe such... …
  • I'll be honest and say I have barely kept up with the discussion going on here. All I will say is please don't ever say our Church is "against" evolution or that it's heretical, because such is not so, and since that's not the case, you make the Chu…
  • Every two weeks is a good habit to get into... if possible, ya3ny.
  • Coptic Pharaoh, In answer to your original question:  It's important to note that when you fast, you're abstaining from the TASTE associated with the senses, not the chemical composition of the food. Does it matter what the food is made of? It's si…
  • Fasting St. John Chrysostom What good is it if we abstain from eating birds and fish, but bite and devour our brothers?

  • Baladoos, I've gone through a similar, yet probably worse situation, and it is interesting that we all seem to question God when things just don't look right. However, if I've ever learned anything from that situation, it's that despite God's will, …
  • [quote author=mikeforjesus link=topic=6236.msg82296#msg82296 date=1203323539] There is extra spiritual material by H.H in arabic and other spiritual material (and there is more spiritual songs in arabic).. and I will be able to speak to people in eg…
  • A Prayer Abouna Youstos The Silent Monk I am Yours, oh Lord. I burdened You with the Cross, and You carry me? I drove nails into Your hands, and You knock at the door of my heart? I wound You and watch You bleed, yet You heal me? I kill You, and …
  • Endurance H.H. Pope Shenouda III: From a lecture on Christian persecution in Egypt "I will stay silent that the Lord may speak. And brethren, He hears your silence."
  • Thank you so much guys!  :D SaintaMaria, that's exactly what I was looking for.. thanks a lot  ;D
  • I agree with SilentOne. I am more scared of McCain becoming president than I would be of Hillary for the time being. Considering the country's current turmoil with economics and Iraq, I doubt there'll be a chance for any democrat to try to pass any…
  • [quote author=Anba Bishoy link=topic=6035.msg82032#msg82032 date=1202701716] Look sorry if anyone feels angry by this but no one right now is really great. The Democrats i am completely against , Obama can't work at all and neither can Clinton, our …
