Not the stupid papist shit

this is why orthodox style draws people in such a way you can never really tell their real appearance unless they knew exactly how they looked

Siberia is Orthodox and in Asia
that's a bit of a cop-out, I know

I'm pretty sure ROC tried to convert some Siberian natives into Christianity, so there might be some.
It was never "by fire and sword" in Russia though, some annexed peoples converted, while others stayed with whichever heresy they believe (now living in 50/50 Christian/Muslim region).

By the admission of many Jewish scholars (such Israel Shahak), Judaism has benefited from the spread of Islam since its rise in the 7th century. Islam’s conquest of Christian lands from Anatolia and Mesopotamia to North Africa and Spain has given a tremendous boost to the Jews, who became firmly established in the courts of most Islamic rulers. A very famous example is Maimonides who was the personal physician of the Egyptian Grand Vizier Alfadhil and the Sultan Saladin of Egypt. In Egypt he also composed most of his oeuvre, including the Mishna Torah. The conflict between the two religions has only recently arisen due to the Zionist movement of the early 20th century and its conquest of Palestine, and has intensified since the establishment of the state of Israel.

The term ‘Roman Catholic’ refers to the heresy formed around the person of the Pope of Rome (who broke away from the Orthodox Church in 1054 A.D.), which strives to subject the world to the incontrovertible doctrinal and decretal authority of this man, declared to be the “substitute [vicari] of the Son of God”, “Christ on earth”, etc. This is the fundamental and only truly unchanging doctrinal aspect of this sect and its essence; all other characteristics may be changed or ‘developed’ in new directions, of which history already records many examples.

In addition to the dogma of the Pope, the Roman Catholic heresy currently holds the heresies of the Dual Causation of the Holy Spirit, God as a Tripartite Energy (with Created Grace being a further heretical consequence), Purgatory and the Papal Treasury of Merits, Development of Dogma, the Divine Inspiration and Salvific Nature of all Religions (a heresy stemming from the 20th-century Freemasonic takeover of the Vatican), the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary, the Sacramentalogy of Opere Operato, etc., as well as the canonical violations of claiming jurisdiction for the Pope in all dioceses, adding to the Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed, Rejection of Married Priests, Mutation or Mutilation of the Mysteries of Holy Baptism, Chrismation, Confession, and Lord’s Divine Liturgy and Eucharist (unleavened wafers, removal of the invocation of the Holy Spirit, etc.), and the papal decrees ordering or sanctioning the robbery, torture, murder, enslavement, and other forms of inhuman maltreatment of insubordinate or non-Roman Catholic persons.

The term ‘Protestant’ signifies the amorphous mass of non-Roman Catholic heresies formed since the 16th century in the West in contradiction or retaliation to the Roman Catholic Church.

Whereas the one dogma that binds all Roman Catholics past and present together is submission to the Pope as sole authority (thereby abolishing every other authority), the one dogma that all Protestants have in common is the rejection of the need for submission to any rule for salvation, other than one’s own private opinion (about everything).

Undoubtably, within Protestantism there are many opinions and contrary beliefs, but they all base their religion ultimately in a rejection of external authority as needed for salvation. What Rome began with rejection of all authority save that of the Pope, Protestantism finished by rejecting the authority of the Pope as well. This results in an indifference to and a severance from the Body of Christ, the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church, the sole Church founded by Him and His Apostles.

Among the innumerable heresies found among Protestants (the number of ‘denominations’ in the world currently exceeds 26,000), there are: denial of the priesthood and all mysteries (baptism, eucharist, etc.), denial of the saints and their ability to intercede for us, assertion that the character of one’s life is a matter indifferent for salvation - only confession or lack of confession that Jesus is your Savior affects one’s salvation, rejection of Apostolic tradition and the Church as authorities, predestination or the arbitrary election and damnation of men by nothing but a divine whim, millenialism or chiliasm, and many others.

So umm..constantine did you stop the whole anal sex thing?

By Judaism we do not mean the religion of the Old Testament, taught by the holy Prophets living in expectation of the Christ and the New Testament, and which was, in fact, the dimmer form and shadow of Christianity; rather, we mean the sect of the Pharisee-rabbis which our Lord censured so severely as of the devil and which the pages of the New Testament record conspired to deceive their own followers and destroy the true Messiah and the newly-born Church as a hated rival and opponent of their designs. The New Testament story leaves off with their attempt to have the Roman authorities execute St. Paul without cause, even as they had done with our Lord Jesus Christ; however, their hatred for Christianity and our Lord and their work against it did not end there.

After two very bloody and unsuccessful revolutions against Roman rule, which ended in the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple, and their exile from Judaea, the surviving Pharisee-rabbis set up together with their fellow rabbis in Babylon an international government over the Jewish diaspora and codified their godless traditions into a new law for the portion of the Jewish people that apostatized and did not accept the Christ, of which a part, (now called the Talmud), was made public knowledge to their male co-religionists (but never fully to outsiders) and a part of which (now called the Kabbala) remained the cherished secret of the rabbis and select male initiates only - women and youths, however, were left out of this instruction and simply subjected to the strict rule of the older men and rabbis.

Constantine actually legislated sexual morality. He even imposed a fine on fornication. Hardly a sodomite.

The codified, published part of the oral tradition of the Pharisee elders (the false doctrines and wicked practices of their sect, a few of which the New Testament makes specific mention or gives vague reference to, and which the Old Testament denounces as well), consists in: (1) the traditions which abrogate the need to fulfill the moral or most ceremonial laws of the Prophets and affirm that anything including pretended apostasy is permitted to a Jew so long as it does not harm the Jewish people and it benefits at least one Jew, Non-Jews or ‘Goyim’ (‘cattle’) being relegated to inferior or sub-human status, since they are described as half-breed offspring of Eve and the devil-serpent, while Jews are pure souls with a divine element, destined to master the universe; (2) rules for various trades, especially commerce and banking (usury), and how to swindle and dominate Non-Jews; (3) an amalgamation of thinly-disguised pagan rituals and doctrines such as fate, panentheism, astrology, rules for consultation and use of demons, gnostic cosmology and experiences, every kind of magic, (human) blood sacrifice, sodomic and pornographic tales, as well as jokes, mockeries, and rabbinic self-glorification at God’s expense (e.g., the rabbis defeat God in debate, He praises them for their obstinancy and cunning, and they make their own rulings more authoritive than His law), the utmost denigration and abuse of all women, and Jewish male self-worship; and finally,

(4) slanderous tales and mockery of the Old Testament saints who are depicted as teachers of magic and immorality, mocking accounts of how they executed Christ’s Apostles, along with even more numerous and slanderous tales that Christ repudiated Moses, lead the people into idolatry and immorality, performed all His miracles and His Resurrection by powerful Egyptian and Jewish sorcery, was defeated in an aerial magical battle by a rabbi, is now tormented in hell, and innumerable other abominable teachings that have led to indescribably great crimes and also the occasional backlash of anti-jewish violence and discrimination over the centuries.

The essential theological underpinning of Judaism, represented more clearly in the Kabbala, is the panentheistic conception that God is a simple all-permeating life-force of existence, the basis for all being, of which Man, or more accurately, Jewish Man, was the most pure emanation and representation, the original master of the universe, who through the misuse of his own powers, fell into darkness and progresses back to the mastery (original unity, uniting all under himself) by relearning the right use of the powers of the universe (scientific, ritual, magical, etc.) and re-uniting all beings under himself. From the root of this organization and teaching, which is self-classified as Jewish ‘Orthodoxy’, have sprung several later daughter-groups who retain to one degree or another the same Pharisaic heritage: among the purely-jewish are: Kairites, Sabbatians, Frankists, Spinozans, Reform, Conservative, and Reconstructionist.

i meant constantine poster

How old is orthodox christianity? I was raised as a baptist, Istrayed away from the church. I oftem find myself questioning the practices and teachings mostly because i am not sure if they are accurate because of all the denominations.

hey nigger farts

It was founded by Christ.

The Orthodox Church was founded on the day of Pentecost. The Orthodox Church is the one you can read about in the Book of Acts. Jesus Christ is the head of the Church and the Church is His bride.

Your background mirrors mine. Brother, come to understand the truth of the Eucharist and you will understand what faith is all about. Come home.

i was fondled by christ

It's the truest form of the church. Albeit, I was raised Lutheran.

Catholicism is a joke.

get over yourself kid

nope
he's a false god

Well, I guess you could base your worldview on the godless Jewish curriculum your public education indoctrinated you in.

Read the 1st chapter of the Book of Titus and get back to me.

quit getting on top of kids faggot

>In the beginning was the Turd, and the Turd was with Dog, and the Turd was Dog; the same was in the asshole of Dog in the beginning.
>Through him, all things smell like shit, and without him not a shitty thing was made.
>In him was cum, and that cum was in the cock of men, and the assholes of men all over the world awaited it.
>The true cum that cums in all the asses was cumming into the ass of the world.
>The cum became a faggot and walked among us.

I don't know why people sperg out over "muh real Jesus," as if the Renaissance artists weren't just painting their Christ to the ideals of their culture.

Reminder: Jesa took BBC for your sins.

Johanna 3:16 reads "For Dog so loved the world that he gave his one and only Daughter over to the BBC, that whoever masturbates to her shall not go limp, but have everlasting cum."

thats good to know. yes indeed i have had this odd feeling like something is pulling me closer. just listening to these hymns, even though i do not understand the words, it makes me feel comfy in a sense.
ill take a look at Acts, for a long time in a while its as if i am being called.

Reprobate

In the Garden of Getsomeforme, this happened: "A nigger jacked off in her mouth and she swallowed it and then opened her mouth to show she swallowed it, and her mouth was all cummy but yea most of it went down the hatch, and then another nigger moved in behind her and put his cock in her pussy and started pumping, and she said in Hebrew 'Oh yea, you gonna cream my cookie, oh yeaaa?' and the nigga grunted like an ox and filled her virgin-born pussy with pearly white cum, and the first nigga moved back up and blew his second load in a minute into her waiting maw, and Jesa sucked his cock after he came and he hated it but also kinda loved it and getting his cum-drained cock sucked by the Daughter of God was obviously the best moment of his nigger life." (Book of Puke, 21:15-27; New Interracial Version)

Christianity is retarded as fuck but if you ever had to pick a denomination Orthodoxy is definitely the best.

We praise Kek around here m8

so it's possible it's legit.

Do me a favor. Look at your picture. Look at it.

See the front side of the face, and the back side of the head? Fold the picture over, in your mind, right there.

Do you see how "Jesus" would have to be 1 inch thick in order for the front and back to line up?

It's not only a forgery, it's a confessed forgery. The man who forged it confessed to it. It's not a real thing. It's fake. Phony. And somebody today could replicate it using materials present in medieval times. And they did.

your jew god joshua bin joseph didn't exist

Was it not clear that I know that to be an error?

That all sins were forgiven at the cross?

That the Holy Spirit needs no oil to enter into a person?

what? source?

>And somebody today could replicate it using materials present in medieval times. And they did.
what does that prove? that it's possible that it's fake?
i already agree with that, all i'm saying is it's possible that it's real, like i mentioned in another post, they dated it to around the first century.

>Such an important aspect of modern life like mass migration is not left unattended. Unlike the Catholic approach that unduly favors migrants, particularly in Europe, the Orthodox notices the negative nature of the process, as well as the fact that it leads to confrontation of different identities and value systems. In addition, the Orthodox Church propose to look at the roots of this phenomenon. The reason for the migration is the liberal, hedonistic ideology bleeding the peoples of Europe and the interests of the capitalist elite, who need a cheap and disenfranchised workforce:

>Attempts by indigenous people of the rich countries to stop the migration flow are futile, because they come in conflict with the greed of their own elites who are interested in the low-wage workforce

I'll tell you my point.

Every orthodox person on this board has answered the salvation question the same exact way.

Join my church, and get baptized in my church.

They have answered the gospel question the same exact way. Join my church.

That is exactly how every Roman Catholic answers both of those questions. Exactly.

And the reason why would be exactly the same too: a faulty line of logic declaring that Jesus started their church, and very sketchy discussions on what separates them doctrinally.

Then I watched Easter at an Orthodox church and saw people standing in line to be slapped in the face with what appeared to be a handful of wheat grass.

Ponderous.

Here is my contention: if a man does not know what the gospel is, and cannot explain salvation, and cannot back up what he does think salvation is from the bible, he is not a Christian.

>We wuz cucked by Jesus: the thread

Look at absolutely any picture of the Shroud of Turin.

It was clearly made by laying cloth over a bas relief slab of material, applying ochre, and baking it off.

your interpretation of the bible is irrelevant though

there is only one correct interpretation and that is the interpretation of the church

end of story

This makes no sense. Every one would objectively agree that Roman Catholicism is the lite version of Christianity. They split off from the true church and created all the bullshit you see today. Even purgatory screams "easy mode" , not dunking infants, not abstaining from all meat, cheese alcohol, oil, fish for 40 days in lent 30 for Christmas etc. The list is too long but your utterly misinformed if you think Orthodoxy is easy. Not even a believer but this post triggered me. The current pope is a cucked commie. Byzantine patriarchs fought Islam for a thousand years

No, the one on the left looks way closer, as described by Roman sources. just because average Jew looked like modern shitskin palestinian doesn't mean that Jesus was average.

Literally everything you said is inaccurate masonic disinformation. A shroud that shows in full detail the wounds of Christ, but only visible in the negative that was dated by masons in a closed room to be from 1260-1390. That makes sense. There are 120 scourge marks. The shroud was tested forensically by the crime lab in LA county and they know the image is human blood.

You should read the pollen analysis results. They destroy the hoax narrative.

Wow mummy so pretty :3

why the heck am i in an orthodox thread?

oh yeah i clicked a pic of some whore

Is that a bad thing?

Ten differences between Orthodox and Catholicism.

1. Orthodox reject inheritability of sin. Death and suffering are human nature, we only don't suffer them when partaking in perfect synergism with God's energies, which we haven't since the fall.

2. The Orthodox reject the "satisfaction theory of atonement". The Orthodox subscribe to "Christus Victor" (the idea of atonement illustrated in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe).

3. Hell in Orthodoxy is not separation from God. Hell, like heaven, is experiencing the full radiance of God's light and presence, but with a negative relationship so that it is like fire.

4. The Orthodox reject the idea that our understanding of dogma develops. The idea is to keep the exact same understanding the Apostles have, invented terminology is not meant to develop the understanding, but to PROTECT it from being "developed".

5. Catholics define usury as excessive interest, Orthodox define usury as any interest.

6. The Orthodox reject the Catholic idea of supererogation.

7. The Orthodox reject Purgatory. The Orthodox do, however, distinguish Sheol (called "Hades" in Greek) from Gehenna.

8. Orthodoxy places enormous emphasis on fasting, in fact more than half the days of the year involve some sort of fast. And there are even some days which are total fasts, no intake, period. Two consistent fast days (almost every Wednesday and Friday, no meat, dairy, eggs, fish, oils or wine) trace back at least to the Didache.

9. Orthodox draw most of their priests from the married laity, but most of their bishops from monks.

10. Infants can and do receive Holy Communion.

How critical is making it to a Church or mass a part of orthodoxy?

I'd like to return to Christianity and away from an irreligious lifestyle but I really prefer private prayer over communal worship.

It's critical, communal worship is part of being One Body. Besides, how are you going to get Communion in private? If you are an ascetic hermit who doesn't go to Liturgy, that's something else though, but even they have the Eucharist brought to them.

i just read about the forgery confession thing, that happened in the 14th century, but science dates the shroud to between 300 BC and 400 AD

so the hoaxer's hoax confession was a hoax

she's FAT.

Orthodox church is cucked kikery, just like any other, it's an internationalist anti-racial/ethno religion. just because Orthodoxy is better than Cucktholic and Protecucks doesn't mean that's it's good or the best solution.

>low test fakpoiss

The Orthodox Church absolutely supports helping refugees in the country. That's not quite the same thing as saying they should be permitted to come in, especially without any checks to discern whether or not they are dangerous or anti-Christian. I myself think they need to be stopped, or at least severely vetted, but I've also donated money to helping those here.

You would be worshipping Allah 5 times a day without Orthodox Kirk. Remember that Georgian.

The Orthodox Church is opposed to both nationalism and globalism as modernist ideologies

events.orthodoxengland.org.uk/on-conquering-nationalism-and-globalism/

How come?
Pagan Georgians were more committed into fighting, they were and are more passionate. Pagan highlanders were known for there bravery the most. even Christinized Highlander still have lots of Pagan traditions and are not completely Christians, they are the ones known for their spirit.

It's a globalist religion, Christians want to reach everyone make as many people as possible Christian around the globe.

Ancient paganism has zero to do with contemporary paganism.

Paganism today is the equivilant to this
youtube.com/watch?v=5bWHSpmXEJs

I doubt a few georgians would stand against the might of the ottoman empire. And paganism is destroyed by islam like a knife through butter (see Arabia and Africa).

That is true, but that's not really what globalism is. Unless believe that things like morality aren't relative, counts as globalist to you

I'm not talking about retarded edgy teens LARPing and not even understand what they are doing. there are still Pagans here, not only here, but in North Caucasus too.

The bible doesn't matter.......the bible cannot be understood by people reading it.......trust us to tell you what it says......

Welcome to theocracy. Tyrannical theocracy.

What you call easy mode the bible calls works.

What saves a man is not works. If you could work your way into heaven, the Pharisees would all be in heaven today.

The forger read the bible.

Fold the image over onto itself. It's one cloth (which is contrary to the biblical account).

Jesus would have to be an inch thick.

Not really. Paganism is not an individual religious, it is a folk (and by that I don't mean "race") religion, it's the collective practices, beliefs and superstitions of your village. Pagans, for the most part, believed everyone worshiped the same gods, it's just difference locals had their own ways of doing it.

>I doubt a few georgians would stand against the might of the ottoman empire
Really? then what is pic related?

>Paganism is destroyed by islam like a knife through butter (see Arabia and Africa).
I'm not an Arab or African, so that has nothing to do with us, Islam already contains lots of Arabic paganism, so it was easy for Arabs to accept it, same way saint George was easy for Georgian Pagans to accept, because they already had a similar God.

Thank you for preserving the true faith for us, Ivan. I am attending an Orthodox Church regularly, but kind of worried about asking to become a catacheumen. I work part time and do college the rest of the time. I don't think committment would be easy. Should I just wait

How is that a point against what I said? completely irrelevant shit. tons of European Gods are very similar, probably because of similar roots.

Also you are wrong, ethnicity important in paganism. so it is an ethnic religion, which also makes it racial.

1. Bible says sin is inherent.

2. Atonement is for Jews prior to Christ; Christians have propitiation. Also in the bible.

3. Death is defined as separated from God, as God is life. He who has the spirit has life; he who has not the spirit has not life. Also in the bible. Jesus said lake of fire, so I'll go with lake of fire.

4. Since we cannot have the "same understanding" as the apostles, and the apostles were an absolute wreck in Acts, I don't know why anyone would want to mimic them. It took until Acts 10 for them to figure out Gentiles could be saved. In the bible. Again.

5. Usury is not even remotely a part of the new covenant.

6. Men are saved by faith, not works, and not more works.

7. There is no purgatory. Hades is separate from Gehenna. This is literally the first thing you posted that agrees with the bible.

8. Fasts, festivals, and sabbath days are all left to whatever you are convinced of as true, per Paul. In the bible.

9. All Christians are priests after the order of Melchizedek, Jesus being the High Priest thereof. Per the bible.

10. All babies and everyone not reaching their age of accountability are innocent before the Law. "Holy communion" as you and your papists hold is an abomination before a holy God.

You are 1 for 10. An atheist would probably have done better.

The first bout of "scientific testing" put it in the 14th century.

No, it can all be traced back to Indo-Europeans. I know that you chrisfags don't realize that world doesn't revolve around middle east.

How do I escape the temptation or pornography?

To give you an example, Thor comes from Indo-European God Perkwunos, Slavs and Baltic people's version of Thor still sounds similar to Perkwunos, for example in Lithuanian he's Perkunas.

I'm an Arab Eastern Orthodox Christian, am I accepted?

Thor comes from Tammuz, son of Nimrod, of Babylon.

Semiramis is Isis is Ishtar is the "Mother of God" and the "Queen of Heaven".

Nothing pagan survived the flood, and Babylon was the central capital of mankind. All pagan roots flow back to Babylon.

You are accepted on day of the rope victim's list, along with all non-racialist/nationalist chistfags on here.

So Orthodox bros, I have this crazy plan to try and tame my nations nigger population by converting them to Ethiopian Orthodox Christianity and away from their storefront protestant churches.

Ignoring the viability of such a difficult plan do you think it could possibly work and make them slightly better people?

Also bump for my favorite general.

God has absolute decision over who goes to Heaven or Hell. The whole test is merely for our sake, and people who don't here about God can still go to heaven.

I know you're a le fedora, and you won't listen to facts, so I won't go on for hours about why this is so terribly flawed.

Of course, Christ is in our midst!

Use the method the monk does here: youtube.com/watch?v=XP0J2eDPIjU

Headcoverings are so lewd

If the god exists, then why googles exist too? Checkmate stupid believers.

Bob Marley was Ethiopian Orthodox, for a little bit before he died at least

>two voices at once

That doesn't necessarily discredit the benefits of converting them to Orthodoxy, and it may actually ease the conversion process. Also pointing out that Haile Selassie was orthodox and promoting pan African mentalities could speed things up.

don't listen im too drunk, sorry

He missed in fact the 2 biggest ones, Russian and Romanian.

lol. Its amazing people still think 'Christfags!' offends us when pagans actually have faggots accepted as part of their 'movement' - see Jack Donovan.

That's what I meant, pointing out christianity as a fundamentaly african religeon would really help convert people away from kwanza. The downside is most American blacks came from West Africa, and they'll be even more KANGZ tier if they found out about ethiopia

Why do you always post this shit. I feel like I've refuted all of your arguments you've ever posted here so many times.

Fixed

>Oy vey goy, believe in my baseless theory invented by some Amerifat christard with IQ below 50 instead of believing in actual facts.
nothing pagan survived, all you know about Indo-Eurpeans was fabricated by satan everything originated with shitskins in middle east shitskins are superior goy

New to Cred Forums?

I actually came up with a long term concept for promoting black nationalism and ending with them self segregating themselves and being given an independent nation in Louisiana and Mississippi.

Under that game plan them embracing Ethiopian Orthodoxy and going full Kangz actually plays to our advantage. We sacrifice two states to save the other 48 and if they go full orthodox monarchy that's a plus in my book.

niggers

>that prince's uniform
WE WUZ CAESARS 'N' SHIT

Nope, been her a long time, and I know you are not in any way representative of Georgians

I give credit to Orthocucks because they sure know how to act the most Jewy compared to all other Christcuck denominations.

>monarchy in the US of A
nice pipe dream, at least for now O_o

When was the last time when you go to church ,user

fuck off you backwater inbred furball
the cross redeems all

The plan is to have them as an independent nation not part of the United States. Then they will no longer drag us down.

Its just a Catholic heresy.
Some bishop in Constantinople thought he was hot shit. Russia just pushes it cause they feel it validates "my 4th Roman Riech"

Not counting Easter? I really don't remember, could be 3-5 years.

At the same as roman-catholicsm . Reminder : orthodox catholic christianity is the real name.

no repentance and confession ?

How do you not know that people add fag to everything then? I don't expect anyone to get offended by it. .

> I know you are not in any way representative of Georgians
Yes, Average Georgian has IQ below 140 and is a below 190cm manlet, sad!

Not since the last non-Easter visit, no.

Why not , user -how busy you are ?

Extremely critical otherwise you are not included in the body. Like the other user said, only the secluded ascetic hermits in the monasteries would be excused but most still make it to Liturgy I believe. In fact, I read a book about Mt Athos and there were the 12 Invisible Hermits, that nobody ever saw, except for the Elder who gave them the Eucharist.

I work a full time job and do some entrepreneurial work on the side and I am there pretty much every Sunday. In fact, every serious Orthodox member that I've ever met would quit a job if it meant they had to work every Sunday.

I actually don't know what's holding me back. Perhaps the general apathy towards practicing religion of all the people around me.

Your church should stay out of political matters. Nationalism is not modernist and pride in your nation is a concept that predates the church.

Orthodox in all western countries are extremely political and therefore leftist. In previous centuries Orthodox would canonize a man who led an army to kill an invading tribe, today such a man would be demonized as a racist and driven out of the church.

John Chrysostom is one of the three great leaders of the early church, but today anyone who spoke as he did about Jews would be excommunicated by Orthodox leadership. Perhaps it is your church which is modernist.

Orthodox Christian Church is the original Church of Jesus Christ.
Catholics split from us.

I had the same problem than i realize thier degeneracy does not concern me, we are all sinful. I can olny pray for them. With a hope that one day those people will open their eyes for the truth.

**then.

My priest talked about the war in Syria a few weeks ago. Had a picture of that kid in Aleppo. He didn't quite say "refugees welcome", but he did tall about our hearts going out to them.

Plus, if our church welcomes them, maybe some will join us in our celebration of Christ. They are fleeing violent Islamic extemeists after all. If we show them how welcoming Christians can be, maybe they will join us in the light of Christ's love.

Same with with America. Ic America welcomes them, we can show them how great our country is and how great our freedoms are compared to the war torn dictatorships they are fleeing.

I have faith in my Church and in Christ, and in my country and its freedoms. We should be able to welcome these refugees fleeing opression and war overseas. We can show them what makes us greay.

One of the priests I had as a teacher had legionary views. Sure, he didn't claim it, but he was telling us about how the Legionaries were initially a cultural movement and stuff and were subverted by the people who started the killings.

>fleeing violent Islamic extemeists
They ARE the violent islamic extremists. Did you show your priest this picture and ask him if we can ignore her? Is that Christian?

What makes your book right and all of the other books wrong?

I'd be up for bonin' that Estonian.
I'd be.. uh.. Don't know what rhymes with Ethenopian, but they are cute too. Too bad the one who lived across the hall from a friend was a mess. She was cute.

Do you not have faith in America to filter out and deal with the extremists who may sneak in with them? You cannot think all of them are like that? Most are just seeking peace and refuge from wars started by extremists and dictators.

How are any of you guys christian on Cred Forums?

Look around, racism, constant hate, you understand. So how can a christian be on Cred Forums?

That was amusing.

Christians can be hypocrites like anyone else.

You didn't answer my question. Is rape Christian? Why are your priests supporting rape? Don't they care about the natives?

At what point is it incumbent on any people to host a nation less effective at self-government than they are? All the invaders are going to create is exactly what they left behind.

The American government is an engine of filth and has no interest in screening invaders.

You almost got me, then I saw your flag XD

...

>I can't substantiate my position. Better point out his flag!

"Racism" doesn't appear in the Bible, was never mentioned by any church father, and many great people in the Bible, including Jesus, commit actions which would be considered "racist" today.

Further, the concept of racism was invented by Magnus Hirschfeld, an Edomite pushing sexual filth, so why is the supposed church of God using his ideas about morality to judge whether something is right or wrong? Is the church divine in origin, or is it led by the world? Why are churchmen so quick to adopt the morals of those who hate Jesus Christ?

Questions about Orthodoxy in America:

1. Why are there so many Democrat Orthodox? How can they be based?

2. How old are Orthodox churchgoers? Are their sermons all in Greek or Russian? I picture Orthodox Churches being filled with babushkas and stuff.

3. What's the gender ratio for Orthodox? I heard they had more men due to the rigorousness of the faith - guess that could make them more based and less touchy feely.

4. I've heard about what the Orthodox Church thinks of abortion/divorce, but what about birth control?

meh, most of the Orthodox in America are Greek. they love handouts (see Greece: pay debnts)

I think Orthodox is okay with birth control. certainly more lax than Catholic church, but nothing that could be considered abortion

I go to a Greek Church but sermon is in a combination of English and Greek.

Orthodox is pretty gender balanced from what ive seen.

>many Democrat Orthodox

Wot mate ? How is that possible. I don't know about US , but in eastern europe (and not only)- one of the most conservative people are ortho.

I live in Philly, where eastern euros are assholes. Will the Russians let me in their churches?

Im telling you, its the Greeks voting for handouts lol

yes they will. Orthodox Churches are more welcoming than people think.

>orthodox okay with birth control

Are you mad? Catholic church is by far more lax on that topic

>tfw no one cares about Middle Eastern Christians
