  • thank you so much for your answers guys!  I really appreciate it.  I always refrained from listening to tasbeha or hymns or christian music in the bathroom for fear of it being disrespectful or something, but you all made a very good point that ther…
  • ^^ yeah, i really don't understand how politicians claim islam is "a  religion of peace" there is not a single peaceful verse in their koran. anyways my opinion is : i am not mad at obama nor do i disagree with him for allowing it because the Ameri…
  • you're right...communion is very serious.. but how do you expect to grow in christ if you don't have him in you ? you've confessed and taken every "technical" step before communion, so i think the only thing left is to ask God with all your heart to…
  • ...uhm...where i live is predominantly mormon, and they are possibly worse than jw.  Trust me, i have talked to them. i have been harassed by them. they have come to my home several times. and yes i DO speak my mind, thank you very much. Anyways, al…
  • i thnk it's great that you wish to present to people the truth... but i think some more patience and sympathy would be great. i often think  how incredibly lucky i am to have been born orthodox... so many people were not that lucky so they do need t…

  • ^ yeah, i would like to know too! the Good Shepherd seems to be doing well, but i also don't know what to compare it to.
  • ?!??! why do they feel a need to "scientifically prove" everything !  It's incredibly irritating, humans need to take a step back and understand that not everything can be scientifically proven, nor does it need to be, and humans are not the top of …
  • I definitely agree with the above posts !! I also wanted to add that there is a difference between being concieted and being arrogant, in my eyes anyways.  To me, concieted could mean taht you see the good traits that God has given you, but you also…
  • come on now, guys..don't be ridiculous...what is some food and drinks?? what like 5$ ?? 10$?! i don't see the big deal... It would be a different story if they disrespected your house..or didn't clean up after themselves but that's not the case.
  • heyyy i'm in the same boat :] i've always 'wanted to be a doctor' but now i just realize it'sbecause it's what my parents want... except for my parents are a little more willing to accept another career..i just can't think of anything... i think if…
  • Actually, i wanted to ask a similar question... I know taht people like to take comfort in believing taht their loved ones who have passed on are in a "happier" places and with the Saints and God and yatta yatta yatta; however, don't we believe taht…
  • I really love the words...they're very touching. And beautiful voice !
  • i'm confused ....i was i taught that we aare all born of the original sin and baptism removes it...and fills us instead with the Holy Spirit ... or maybe i misunderstood something.. ? ahh.
  • sodr and abanoub...i thought i was the only one thinking that. : P what a relief ! haha

  • Yeah, real sad :/ May the Lord help them through this, especially all the children that are now left without parents or relatives. (...i thought Haiti was mainly catholic...?)
  • John, thank you for the sheet music for epouro..it's perfect!! LondonCopt, thank you for the weblink...i actually hadn't see that website before, but it's definitely super useful!  It has a lot of the notes for lots of hymns thanks so much guys!…
  • ooh haha okay thank you ! (:
  • what do you guys mean by "write an icon" ?? does that mean write the coptic font that's on icons ?
  • who's tasooni?? my opinion on this is there has to be a happy medium, which seems sometimes impossible with copts.. Church is so you can concentrate on GOD ! So, i think coptic youth should ..no, NEED, be given other chances to mingle....like you…
