St Cyril of Jerusalem mentions that ppl sit on different sides of the church based on gender. It’s in his catechetical lectures published by St Vladimir’s Seminary Press. I can’t remember the exact page but it’s definitely in there.
-
What kind of class are you taking that requires you to write a paper on that subject?
-
More condescension
-
Jojo, you’re making my point for me. Where did I insult Church canons and guidelines? All I said was that the picture of Anba Danial is before he became a bishop. My evidence was that he’s not seated in the center of the picture that they posed for.…

Jojo, your responses are the epitome of idiocy.
-
Jojo, you’re starting to annoy and you’re conflating things that have no bearing on one another. Standard protocol for pictures like this is that the highest ranking cleric sits in the center. This is not debatable, especially since the people in th…

What do you meant “not necessarily.” I’m telling you a fact.
-
The emma is different because he wasn’t ordained a bishop yet. He was still a priest. If he was a bishop at the time this picture was taken, he’d be sitting in the center of the group.
-
Any clue as to why regular priests don’t wear them as often as they did in the past?
-
Her veneration might have something to do with the fact that people like her name. Some egyptians are stupid like that. If people buy into protestant songs and sermons, is it any surprise that they'll eat up some sort of story about a vision a catho…

‘Tacky’ is indeed subjective. And doesn’t the girl planning the proposal defeat the whole purpose?
-
I highly recommend a book titled "Re-examining the Council of Chalcedon" by Fr. V.C. Samuel. The author is a renowned Indian Orthodox Priest and theologian who examines the history of Chalcedon. This of course involves and even requires a proper und…

I know that some monks grow their hair. My question was specifically about local parish priests. And while I understand that you’re joking, I’m not interested in just aesthetics.

Also, the early Christians, much like some Christians today, believed that the end of the world was at hand. The apostles and their followers thought that Christ’s second coming was imminent. Given this view, abolishing slavery was not seen as neces…

I’m not advocating for sexual promiscuity. I’m simply asking why does God command us to abstain from sexual promiscuity. I appreciate both of your efforts so far but neither of you have answered the question.

I was going to recommend the two books Tobit mentioned.
-
He was excommunicated and deposed by Ephesus II in 449 AD. Whenever a Bishop is excommunicated and deposed, they are then exiled. Usually it is soldiers who take people to exile. When the soldiers took Flavian to exile they beat him. The beating was…

Flavian was roughed up by soldiers not “Monophysite monks.”
-
Anyone?

Brother Antonius speaks Sahidic not Bohairic.
-
That's heartwarming. This should be dedicated to Protestants who accuse Holy Orthodoxy of not evangelizing.
-
@ItalianCoptic, don't worry man, thats not how it came off at all.
-
@andrew_tanios He was talking about St. Shenouda Monastery in upstate New York, USA.
-
I was just curious. This might be funny but I don't even like honey so go figure. But still, no body answered the question. That being said, I can assure I haven't forgotten the actual meaning of fasting and I attend liturgies on a regular basis and…

Thanks for the link!

What do you mean when you say "Seraphim simply likes to play Bishop, not take his role seriously."
-
I know they returned to their pre-1994 status but I don't know what that means.
-
I meant the sixth VI

What's this group about?
-
So I thought about this issue a little more and I've come to the conclusion that it's not my business. If it's true, only God can judge and do something. If it's not I committed a grave sin by gossiping and slandering the integrity of apostolic succ…
