Funny how Armenians and Greeks hate Turks, and also Serbians and Greeks hate Albanians? And both the Albanians and Turks hate Orthodox nations? Why ass hole? Religion (basically another well-concealed word for politics) is one of the biggest reasons why this hate exists. If there were no muslims and christians, peace would be a much more vialbe prospect between all those peoples. As long as idiots like you put false faith in these myths, then the hatred between you will CONTINUE.

@ImperatorDerGalaxis You are a bit ignorant about the history of the Balkan region. They hate each other because the Ottoman empire conquered those nations and killed many millions of people and also slowed the development of those nations, which were far more advanced than the Turkish tribes at the time. I don't defend hate. I don't hate neither Turkish people nor anybody else. But before coming up with ideas and insulting people inform yourself.

Study Father Paisios " Flies in garden full of flowers are going to sit on shit, bees are searching for beautiful flowers to extract honey" So define your thoughts on what you see on others!

@ImperatorDerGalaxis You want to know know why the Armenians hate the Turks? The Turks committed genocide against the Armenians.

Explan the two natures in Christ and what is the coptic belief about it.

@KaxiLaxi You make someone higher than yourself, when they are shown reverence,that only God should be shown. I am not mislead like many others, they need to see people dressed up in robes,etc to feel that they are holy. Take them out of that garment, let them dress like most people, then when they preach in front of the church--see if there is a different feel of their status.

[KaxiLaxi]

@rightlydivide08 i understand your view but how have we actually annointed them higher than man itself? and please do not mix catholicism with orthodoxy because its very different, we dont have a pope to tell us whats wrong or right and who gets in the paradise and not or priests that forgive sins just by visiting the the church no we dont do that we leave that to god all mighty only he can judge us.

Africa straddles the equator and encompasses numerous climate areas; it is the only continent to stretch from the northern temperate to southern temperate zones. The African expected economic growth rate is at about 5.0% for 2010 and 5.5% in 2011.
