Hey All, I wrote a short story the other day, and anecdote if you will, and am polishing it up for (a fanciful) submission to the Clairion Review. (Where it will no doubt be rejected.) Nonetheless, hopefully some of you will read it and provide me with suggestions...

My little boy was Baptized on Sunday. :clap: See pictures here

I thought I'd kill two birds with a single stone: 1) Say hi to the few people here who might remember me. 2) Show off baby pics. :) http://foru.ms/t6386447-baby.html

Okay, I remembered to stop by. :) Here is a link to pictures of our little baby Brenden Basil. http://pactum-serva.blogspot.com/2007/11/yay-for-baby.html

You probably won't be seeing me anymore around these parts. If you feel like keeping in touch, my info is in this thread: http://foru.ms/t6012636-hows-it-going-there.html

Hey everyone! :wave: I haven't really been around here of late. It's probably been weeks since I last posted. Who came up with the lame new name? Oh well, never mind... Anyways, I think my time here at the Christian Forums (excuse me, "ForU.ms") is coming to an end. I just don't have the...

1.) Today we had a fetal scan done on our son, and everything looks normal. It looks like his due date is around Oct 27. 2.) The doctor told us that since the form of Spina Bifida that my wife had was with a closed spinal column, she is not at risk of passing it on to our children. 3.) I...

I just recieved this in an email today. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought two cheeks pressed together was the symbology used in Icons for married Saints who had a sexual relationship. Is there a problem with iconographers today who are good artists but generally ignorant of the...

This may be a stupid question: Is this forum only for Quiverfull Protestants, or is it for everyone who believes contraception is wrong?

I recieved this from my priest today, and it relates a lot to what we have been discussing some in this forum lately. "On American Motherhood" by President Theodore Roosevelt March 13th, 1905 In our modern industrial civilization there are many and grave dangers to counterbalance the...

The use of contraception is sinful. It is against God's commandments, and against the universal teaching of the Church through the ages. It's use and acceptance has always led quickly to the acceptance and use of abortion, and currently is destroying Western civilization, through the...

Here's something that might be interesting to discuss. We here things all the time about how Orthodoxy is growing quickly, and sometimes about not so rosey pictures about the growth of the Church. Either way we look at it, we are an insignificant minority on the American religious scene (I've...

No one posted it yet, so I thought I'd bring it up first. Tomorrow the long standing split will finally be ended.

We were right, it is going to be a boy. :) We had our ultrasound yesterday, and it's pretty sweet with the 3d and 4d they can do now. I'll scan in some images later.

Hey everyone, Here's a scenario that hopefully someone hear can give me some help with. My wife's 12 year old cousin has been in my sister-in-law's custody for about two years now, because her parents are drug addicts (speed) and my inlaws fought to gain custody of her. Lately there's...

Does anyone have some good recommendations for books on Orthodox Family/Parenting? I know of On the Family Life by St. John Chrysostom, but that is about it.

Ow!

Just thought I'd make the announcement too. Mrs Lotar and I are now expecting a little Lotar the II. We got the results this morning before liturgy.

I know there are more than enough threads on this subject, but I thought, "what the heck, why not one more?" Perhaps I'm missing a few things, but this is how I see what brought this issue to a head. 1.) Of late it has seemed that we have be hit by an abnormal amount of fakodox laity, and now...
