    I feel bad because I am older

    Hey, I'm a medical student and there are some people in my year in their late 30s, 40s and one even approaching 50 (she might even be there already)! It's never too late to do what you want :) Not everybody's road runs the same path, you'll get where you're meant to be in the end :)

    A view on where aborted infants go from Elder Cleopa

    Why would the children go to that limbo-like place? What about stillbirths and miscarriages, they have never been born either. Or pregnancies that had to end because they were ectopic. I do not imagine God to be so unreasonable.

    Your Opinions On Divorce (poll too)

    Ideally you should not divorce, but I voted acceptable at any time simply because I think it is wrong to force a couple that absolutely hates each other for whatever reason to remain together, and unfair on the children growing up in that household (not saying divorced parents are a walk in the...

    Red Pascha Eggs: Question

    Why don't you cover them with grease/fat? Like duck fat or something that's solid at room temperature. You can keep them in the fridge and it makes them shine beautifully. And it also keeps the air out to keep them from spoiling a little longer. I wouldn't leave them out of the fridge...

    Thinking of leaving Orthodoxy

    Hey InnerPhyre, there are three Romanian Orthodox churches I could go to, one I do not even enter anymore. That was the church that basically said men can do whatever they like and it's their wife's duty to put up with it. I kinda swing between the other two, my Confessor is in one of them and I...

    Thinking of leaving Orthodoxy

    Hey all, I haven't posted in a while. As the title says I am considering leaving Orthodoxy. For a while now I've realised that I don't come back form church feeling fulfilled like I used to but I've been trying to push that to the back of my mind. I've also posted a few questions here to try...
