    People With No Empathy

    Yes, you are right. We are all created by God's image and someone not being able to have emotions isn's nesecerely evil. It's just their lesson to learn loving without feeling any emotions. This really eases my mind a lot. Thank you all :).

    People With No Empathy

    Good evening brother and sisters, There is something that has been stuck in my mind for a long time. One of the basic principles in christianity is that there is good in every person and by showing love to them you can awaken that goodness. Even if the person is pretty much a lost soul. But in...

    Luke 6:29-30

    But then I can make up fitting understandings of His teachings. For example "It's wrong to take what's not mine, but I'm poor, so its OK", or "it's wrong to cheat on my wife, but she cooks badly so it's OK". Please explain how and how much it is fine to moderate His teaching.

    Question About Rastafarianism

    Hello brothers and sisters. Today I'm asking the most strange question of them all :D. I listen to a lot of musical genres and one of them is Reggae.

    What is wrong with this BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING

    Most people do not understand the wedding as we do. For me the wedding in the church is to tell God "Look what wonderful wife I've found. Can I be with her?", but instead they look at it like it's something to show their low manners. Yes after the wedding ceremony in the church we can drink and...

    More Americans Join Orthodox Christian Churches

    My opinion is, the more a religion goes out and advertises itself, the more it looks like a sect. Orthodoxy doesn't need to be advertised, cos it's a strong religion. When people feel ready to believe in God, they will come to the church. :):amen:

    More Americans Join Orthodox Christian Churches

    Secular is a soft word. In Bulgaria we have this music called "Chalga". It is something very stupid and teaches people not only to drink and aaam for example drive :), but the worse thing is, they are becoming more and more narcissistic. I think nacissism is the problem of young people now. In...

    Give Thanks To God

    Hi guys :), I downloaded some very good prayers. And praying is good, but in my opinion there is one very important thing and that is giving thanks to Him. But in prayers we mostly ask, we do not give thanks. Are there some prayers or something that give thanks to God or glory Him. Blessings...
