Conqueror, You have to have a audio codec for .ogg files. That's the Liturgical language used by the Syriac Orthodox/Catholic, Syro-Malankara Catholic (My Church)/Malankara Orthodox, Maronite Catholic, Syro-Malabar Catholic, Assyrian Church of t…

Boricua Orthodox, Subaho Labo Lebaro Vala Rooho † Kadisso. Ameen. [Glory be to the Father, Son, and † Holy Spirit. Amen.] Good to see you again. I've been so busy with my Master's degree - this week is nearing the end of the semester - all paper…

I hope this doesn't sound crazy, but: I would ask both angels to bow to me, the one who did would be the honest one. Some tradition has it that the reason Satan fell from heaven was because he refused to bow down to the Word made Flesh. Satan is…

Grigorii, I have one disagreement with your clear and concise presentation. The Pope of Rome doesn't have to be ordained by another Pope to be Pope. See, all Cardinals are Bishops, and the Pope is the Bishop of Rome. His selection is not an ORDI…

It should also be noted that not all Arabs are Muslims, many are Christians. Also there are Syro-Chaldean Christians in the Middle-east, Armenians - mostly Christian, and other smaller groups. There are even Arab-Jews in Israel. Arab is really a …

Hello everyone. Its been a long time; I think there maybe some confusion on the Catholic understanding of purgatory. The Latin Church has taught some pious customs in addition to the actual teaching. I am an Eastern Catholic and the way we wer…

Actually, the Catholic and Orthodox Churches accept what is called 'single-predestination', but we reject protestant 'double-predestination'- this is what John Calvin was teaching. D-P says that God destined some to hell and some to heaven. The Ca…

Long time no post, Just happen to see this and had to answer. ShawnH, let me assure you that you will be very unhappy in the long run if you wish to become a Copt and your wife wishes to be an Anglican priest. The Coptic Church (along with Easte…

i think its ok, especially for younger kids and older adults. But its a maybe for teenagers, as hormones are rampant. Never with any nasty bikini's or thongs, etc. of course.

Think of icons and statues as similar to photographs. The paper and ink in the photo are not what you are remembering, it is the person that picture represents. The same way, we do not worship statues and icons of Christ, we worship the Eternal So…

why did you feel guilty?

No, it was an Arab-Catholic, he and I were debating a Muslim on another message board, when he signed off, he wrote that. Thank you guys, so much. God Bless.

tell her to stop or you will tell the appropriate people for her own good.

I would say, if your dancing for the Lord, as David danced, or to raise money for charity (of course no dirty dances), then good. But if it is to show off, promote yourself, hit on members of the opposite sex or simply make money, then not good.

Putting the shoe on the other foot, I couldn't put up flyers for Bush, even if he gave me $100. But hey, if you don't mind me asking, what is coming up that you need the money for?

Franklin, Jefferson was so anti-Christian he re-wrote the Bible to make it fit secular humanism, see: http://www.angelfire.com/co/JeffersonBible/ If Layfette no-showed, Washington would not have been the hero he was. Remember von Stueben, from Ge…

Oh you mean the same values that catholic France{or rather I should say secular humanist,remember the french revolution?}espoused while they were busy chopping off the heads of the French aristocracy?...lol...Go study your history.Remember how the F…

Actually, i really feel that this country was founded on protestant beliefs. Puritan beliefs and calvanism to be exact. These people came here because they were escaping religious persecution. White Anglo-Saxon Protestants are the people that creat…

I am going to refrain from discussing the political aspects of this thread, as I get overly worked up at having to repeat myself over and over. I do have a slight correction to make on your view of American Church history. The Catholic Church was …

even a cloned human being has a soul. Any human who is alive must have a soul from God to live.

You asked me why I liked Bush so much and why I would so strongly defend him.Well the answer is not so much that I like Bush but rather I cant stand for people to lie and bear false witness against another christian brother,whether its a coptic brot…

In Greece they do the same thing even with the active consent of the government.Besides persecuting evangelical christians the Orthodox church in Russia has had a long and well documented history of killing and persecuting Jews{for hundreds of years…

Mike, Bush isn't anti-abortion. He has never said he would change Roe v Wade, or appoint pro-life judges. Rather I believe it is you and people like you,left wing radicals and rapid America haters who are lying,manipulating the truth,and unpatrio…

Cloning also uses embryos, many of which will be discarded and destroyed, this is direct abortion.

Fadid, It really is strange how some people who get outraged at words are not at all even slightly questioning lying, manipulating, and sending people to their deaths. People need to get their priorities in order!

[quote author=angelofGOD link=board=1;threadid=666;start=120#msg13537 date=1098830964] i thought bush was catholic? [/quote] No, he's a Methodist who acts like an evangelical fundamentalist. Its funny cause the Methodists are one of the most non-t…

Jesus can speak to the Father because the Father and Jesus are distinct "persons", but they are the same One Divine "Being." Why did Jesus say "Eloi, Eloi, Lama Sabacthani"? This is a prayer of David in Psalm 22: To the choirmaster: according to T…
