  • The greatest thing a guy can do if he likes someone is not to do anything about it. Telling the girl or trying to 'pursue' her is not manly, Godly behaviour. I'm not saying hide your feelings or suppress them, but acknowledge to yourself that these …

  • I don't think it's sad at all. I haven't seen the movie yet, but want to. I don't trust Copt.net because it exaggerates too much, so I need to see it for myself. Also, it is supposed to be a social commentary. The director wants to touch to say,"Pe…
  • Peace, It was a little more than STD's when God commanded against pre-marital sex. God wanted sex to be experienced between two people, committed to each other for life, and not committed to feelings or physical attraction. God knew that sex can b…
  • Hello, I'd like to remind people that the Synodal decision to accept marriages with Greek Orthodox Christians only applies in Egypt. That is the extent of the jurisdiction of this decision. It still hasn't been decided in the lands of immigration, …
  • [quote author=SMS link=board=1;threadid=520;start=0#msg8592 date=1092166330] but after reading all that you guys have said, another question arises say i like this guy, or this guy likes some girl.... but they're "liking" for them fits all the chara…
  • To add my thoughts to sleepy's. I'll try to come up with something personal without a reiteration of the treatise in Corinthians. Love is firstly a choice, not a feeling. You choose, not suddenly moved by this sensation in your stomach that you 'lo…
  • Sleepy, Have you and this guy talked about this openly? It seems like you're both tiptoeing to avoid addressing the situation. Shola7
  • How about the cold shoulder treatment? Stay out of their way, act disinterested, not give into what they say or do... shut off completely? Worked with my younger sibling. Now, things have changed. :) Mina.
  • I hear everyone who has spoken thus far but I strongly feel people are looking far too deeply into the dancing issue. Not attacking anyone, but I'd like to comment in general, stating my thoughts. I have long kept my mouth shut about dancing becaus…
  • [quote author=sleepymusician link=board=1;threadid=474;start=30#msg8271 date=1091562903] so long as I can keep God in my heart, and join in his praises and prayers, why not? [/quote] I'm with you there. Sounds like you got the balance to me. I comm…

  • I think both sides have a point here. I personally fully agree with Sleepy - you can balance the two. However, the line is thin and fuzzy. My ideas on how to make it clearer. Firstly, what's my intent/reason for listening to secular music (ie. non…

  • i think Paulh's post all the way on page 1 pretty much answered the question. It really depends on if you can be that guy's or girl's friend and not have feelings develop. Sometimes, a guy or girl will be friends and one of them will start looking a…
  • Well done CopticSoldier on outlining the differences. Just a small clarification.. If you look at modern Roman Catechism, you will see the doctrine of Co-Redemptrix being fully part of Roman theology. The current Patriarch of Rome made sure that wa…
  • "The phrase "Do not be afraid" has appeared in 47 verses in the Old Testament as if the world was in need of comfort before the coming of the Lord Christ. However, the phrase only appeared in 10 verses in the New Testament for He is now with us." …
