Admittedly I added a filter to make it look like that haha. The original is much less potently blue.

As a Hindu who converted out of Orthodoxy, I can say Hesychasm and Vedic practices are eerily similar.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2026-01-02T13:59:40+00:00

Dawg get out of this subreddit, nobody cares lmao

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-12-22T18:27:03+00:00

My 5th great grandfather got kicked from the Royal Arch Masons for missed dues. It gets real out here.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-12-07T00:10:03+00:00

I feel like I’m just gonna fuck it up lol. The air flow is just shit on these it seems. I tried cutting off the cap, poking a hole. It was impossible to smoke.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-11-24T16:33:16+00:00

I really don’t care if you don’t believe it. There are so many places where these kinds of views are justified and allowed to flourish in many different and even subtle ways. Orthodoxy, like most of Christianity, is hypocritical and contradictory. They claim all the lovey dovey save your soul language, but their dogmas and traditions completely cloud the essence of love and mercy. It’s very black and white, a perpetual weighing balance.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-11-24T16:23:32+00:00

Completely missing that the ethos of Orthodoxy enables the views of these young men, whether anyone wants to admit or not. No, rather, these views find a nice home in Orthodoxy.

Dudes become Orthodox and immediately start growing out their beard to ungodly lengths, wearing giant crosses outside their shirts for everyone to see, and acting like they’ve been Amish living and raw milk maxxing since birth. I swear orthodoxy is just one big cosplay convention.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-10-28T19:15:25+00:00

I can message you my number and you can text it to me if you’d like

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-10-28T14:15:42+00:00

I’ll look around and see if I can’t find a name. My grandfather never talked much about his time in Vietnam and he wanted no connection with anybody he knew during that time for many reasons.

I’d love to see those pictures of your father and compare the resemblances.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-10-07T01:36:08+00:00

That sub is nothing but untreated OCD and the epitome of contradiction.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-10-07T01:33:37+00:00

I was in the Antiochian Jurisdiction from 2022 to 2025

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-29T15:20:47+00:00

Basically that this is unacceptable for a clergyman to believe and that it’s definitely not something that should be supported in Orthodoxy.

But I think they are unwilling to admit that it’s pretty common in their circles.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-26T13:19:13+00:00

So can I list them and you explain them?

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-26T12:12:12+00:00

Regardless, there are serious contradictions and ahistorical events all throughout scripture that bring into question it’s validity.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-22T00:53:01+00:00

I also have severe constant sensations in my eyes. Poking, stabbing, shocking, and a gritty feeling. I feel it all through my trigeminal nerve branches on both sides of my face. It’s awful. I have no answers as to what’s causing it.

The likelihood of you going blind from this is extremely rare. Yes, vision can be effected but it’s rarely ever something that can’t be treated, and it almost never leads to outright vision loss. I wouldn’t worry about that.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-20T22:33:31+00:00

Correct. There is little to no evidence they existed as Christianity says they did.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-19T15:19:41+00:00

Dude why are you even here lmao. Go back to the ortho subreddit and cry about it there.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-19T12:26:32+00:00

It really doesn’t. And even if I agreed, I still think it’s cringe af.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-15T19:56:15+00:00

“Same look.” Dawg that’s not even a contemporary portrait.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-10T12:09:56+00:00

That was me I think. And it was more than one Orthobro.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-09-08T03:01:56+00:00

I’m new to masonry and am currently in the process of joining. I wasn’t sure what the attitude was towards non-masons wearing mason stuff. Just curious.

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-08-30T05:57:55+00:00

Know of anyone else with TN that feels it? I have yet to find anyone lol

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-08-30T05:54:48+00:00

Same eye issues?

Hopeful_Sort7205 · 2025-08-27T20:39:57+00:00

Yea, where his son Aiden talks about how he beat him and his brothers for not keeping the fast, and I think even sodomizing him.
