    More deeply disturbing concerns

    I wasn't there for long, so I didn't see the brunt of things... but I was very, very, happy to get out. And I moved much, much, farther away from the Church... for a long time.

    yeah it is the time to talk EO in western society again....

    I would've thought the theological differences would speak for themselves. Maybe we need to stick bald eagles and bacon on the walls, draped in the American flag?

    How can the Orthodox deny the Authority of Peter and his successors in Rome?

    Easy... we just interpret it differently. ;) :P jk Okay, okay. So, he's Peter, got that. And on Peter is built the Church... mmmk, so what is the Church? is the Church....whoever rules from Rome?, Doesn't say that here. So, really no mention is made here of Peter's successors, or even of Rome...

    How do you become Eastern Orthodox, but dislike the Eastern Culture ?

    Eastern Orthodoxy and Eastern Culture are two very different things. And who's to say the things you dislike about Eastern culture are even Orthodox? Eastern culture has honor killings; Orthodoxy does not Eastern culture has circumcision for boys/girls; Orthodoxy does not I like western...

    OT: Apple Computer fans cult-like?

    All Mac's are, at this point, is the OS. Why not suggest to him; just buy MacOS and run it in a VirtualPC? I've seen it done.

    OT: Apple Computer fans cult-like?

    I've seen plenty of fanboys for every OS. I've used all the big three. Normally I'm an anything-but Apple guy, but I stopped trying to convert people away from Mac when I saw how well it works for some of them. Are they a fan-base cult? Nah, I doubt it... at least not en masse' and not in a way...

    Fasting - source of pride?

    Lots of things can lead to pride... fasting being only one of them. Perchance just about anything one does in one's struggle to Orthodoxy could become a source of pride if not done properly, fasting, praying, or regular attendance...etc. Just my opinion but I think Pride is probably the worst...

    God might be changing my mind.

    I've been molded through life. Whether by God or circumstance, I can't say. Suffice to say I am by far quite different in certain respects to what I was way back in High School. I can remember in early High School and even before, I was hard-set against having a spouse... but then I took an...

    my 25yr hubby has low testosterone

    If your hubby has low testosterone, at 25, I would be concerned, maybe he should see a different doctor. Short of that, maybe he has a hard time in bed because he's never been able to figure out what he likes / doesn't like. Just a guess.

    Where did everyone go?

    I just figure it's because other than not wanting kids,... there isn't much else to say. But then I'm super lucky... I never get BINGO'd or anything.

    Differences between men and women..

    aside from biological? probably none. it's impossible to tell, because you can never prove or disprove entirely that a person's behavior is entirely the result of their gender. At best you can assume that if they were a different gender they might act differently than they do now, but what that...

    Doing things outside..

    I went outside once... totally awkward. Go to a coffee shop with your laptop and then just do stuff on it while at the coffee shop. At some point you'll maybe meet someone. I guess the other alternative is to go to a bar, but I'm not sure women find it attractive to see a guy alone or not... :\

    Women is it a plus if a guy a cook?

    Well, probably can't hurt. Otherwise I'm tempted to think good things happen to men who cook.
