    in Is there... Comment by Elitew March 2006
  • Thank you for that comment, Orthodox11, that was informative. I am not really familiar with this specific bible, I just googled it and got the piece I posted. From the verse that you pointed out it does not seem there was some sort of conspiracy beh…
  • To this date there is no universal consensus in the scientific community, that homosexuality is genetic, at least not I am aware of. As you said we were first created in the image and likeness of God, who is perfect. But after Adam and Eve ate the …

  • You know I have been there, don’t you? And now look at me, I am feeling perfectly fine and that kind of state is all gone as if it were non existent. If you just sit back and reflect on it, it is amazing how it turns out. Most of the time the reason…
    in Depression? Comment by Elitew March 2006

  • Thank you for the reply Marianne87. Since Abrham was a holy man and at the sametime an Israeli thus God chose them over others…I am not really certain if that is as such good reason to do so or is it? And as you said IF they were the only people w…
  • It is not directly connected with the topic but in some ways it is, I guess. Anyhow can someone explain to me as to why God prefered Israelis as his chosen people over others? I am not saying there is something wrong with it rather just curious that…
  • This is interesting topic, and the article is very informative piece,thanks gmankbadi! From that we can understand that there is not yet a lucid scientific proof to demonstrate homosexuality is genetic. But even if science is able to establish a rel…
  • Okay I see your point and I agree! :) Please pray for me? and GBU!
  • Did you cite those verses of the bible to support the option that we should follow guidelines from our parents no matter what? Or is it for the one which says depending on the situation? It will be great if you elaborate before I comment on it?

  • Yea I am not sure either. But considering what monks are suppose to do; as you stated, it may sound a little strange. However I am thinking they have something in mind for doing so….may be for guests who would like to use a phone? or may be for some…
  • See…. it is a kind of difficult to have some sort of formulated and fixed stance to deal with these kinds of issues, which are so varied depending on the situation one is in. Anyhow that was interesting, thanks for sharing it, Marmar! And the cell …
