  • But why isn't there the human verification box when signing up?
  • But why don't they just upgrade the whole forum to completely avoid the spam posting? it is getting really annoying!
  • I didn't mean if we have guests. I mean if we are the guests.
  • Can we please stop this? We really do not need another thread that is all arguments. Lately, most threads are ending the same way: a fight about something, whether it be the different Coptic, the decisions of fathers etc. Can we please just keep pos…
  • [quote author=Unworthy1 link=topic=12256.msg144103#msg144103 date=1314940264] Why exactly is abouna handed the censer by an acolyte? There has to be more to it than the fact that it makes life easier for him. [/quote] Can you explain what an acolyte…

  • Remnkemi, I was refering to the comment mina said: Actually the commemoration is not for all the saints but rather specific ones.
  • Actually the commemoration is not for all the saints but rather specific ones. Each liturgy has its own set commemoration. The only exception for adding a saint AT THE END of the commemoration is if they are a canonized saint and being the patron of…

  • Just out of curiosity, was there days in Coptic Egypt or did they go by Adam and Watos? For example, was 1 Adam day 3 cycles of the sun and 1 Watos day was 4? Or am I using my imagination too much  ;D
  • [quote author=mshenouda link=topic=12220.msg143860#msg143860 date=1314640106] Hello everybody, I would like to ask a question regarding the memorization of hymns. It seems that as I keep learning hymns, I start confusing some hymns for others. For e…
  • [quote author=Unworthy1 link=topic=12120.msg143751#msg143751 date=1314487040] But we still refer to the writings of Origen! I think that is what copticuser is getting at. [/quote] Yes that is what I meant.

  • [quote author=imikhail link=topic=12120.msg143312#msg143312 date=1313676771] His excommunication does not mean that all his writings are heterodox. That is why we need to be careful when we study patristics so as not to rely on just one writer but o…
  • So if someone asks about a word or pronunciation, for example this post, you will give them the old way and not the modern way the church uses?
  • Origen uses the example of Lot to explain Pride and Vainglory (just as an example of a thought). He says: They are vain glory and her older sister pride. Beware lest with their embraces those daughters constrict you, deprived of sense and sleeping,…

  • [quote author=ophadece link=topic=12175.msg143600#msg143600 date=1314152997] According to many studies, the letter shima may have at one stage been pronounced as /ch/ or even /k/, but with evolution it became /sh/. So no one denies Coptic has underg…
