What a weird thing for a Christian to say. Why rejoice in anyone's misfortune? That is extremely un-Christlike.

Imagine how many all told since Columbus first landed?

Except that, in all fairness, the town of Lytton has been completely destroyed. Wiped off the map

If you look at the numbers in the USA and the numbers in Canada, particularly British Columbia, you will see we are doing much better. We are doing much better because of the strictness of rules and people following the rules. It isn't a government conspiracy

I don't know if you have read Romans. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Does the fact that they lived like the rest of the world in sin, in warfare, mean that it was justifiable that Europeans came, warred, destroyed, raped, stole? Did the natives do those things? Of...

Unless I misunderstand you, that is a severe misunderstanding of the native people. Not every single native person is like that. I should know. I married a beautiful wife who has a beautiful native family. If you ever get a chance to read Bruchko, you will see how love and honour makes all...

It is tragic how the native people have been treated. If the original Europeans who came to this land treated the people here with honour and respect. If the (universal) church treated them as Christ called us to, what a difference it would have been. The situation in the USA is a bit...

All of the Americas were native land at one point in time.

I was 16 when I came to know the Lord. My parents didn't know the Lord either. My best advice to you is not try to convert them, not try to force them because I know how excited you are, but rather just love them. Show them God's love. It is far more powerful then anything you can say. Show...

I have a friend who told me he used to look at UFO books all the time. His dad, an officer in the air force, noticed him reading. He said, "you like those kinds of books, don't you?" To which he replied in the affirmative. Then his dad said, "those are secret military aircraft." To him...

That has absolutely nothing to do with this discussion, and there is no reason to post that here regardless of what you believe

I know I have no business coming into The Ancient Way, and if not allowed please remove. I have had an interest and a moderate understanding of Orthodoxy. Can someone explain, in a EO for Dummies kind of way, the issue with the Ukraine Church and the Russian Orthodox in the context of this...

Hi, I'm a member of a PAOC church. Long story short, there was a question brought up as to what apostolic means in the context of PAOC pastoral leadership. So, to say it simply, what are your thoughts, definitions, or understanding? Thanks in advance! God bless you all!
