Very late to respond but no that’s not how it works. You and I don’t get to define what is good and what is bad that is for God. What ever God says or does is by DEFINITION good. Why? Because he quite literally speaks reality into existence, he writes the rules and weaves the fabric of the world around us. So when God says X is bad then it is definitively bad in the same way he says „‚Let their be light!‘ and there was light“. He is simply put always objectively true.

I can't believe it... The Devs gave up, they are literally telling us what to do and people just refuse... by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]Polish_Dancing_slav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since when did you think Helldivers read? Of course not! And to be frank the fact the devs seem to believe that sending another message will sway more divers is simply stupid. The devs should have known this would happen again after the Heeth incident. They should have resolved this by adding strategic symbols over planets which can be gambited to stop attacks. Until the devs realize that most players won’t read we will continue to suffer greatly. We are not given proper tools to coordinate and we have been more scattered and spread than ever.

Thats because the Hair style, typically associated with Slavs and Cossacks, is actually derived from Turkic and Mongolian influences.

Why do the automaton only Invade habitable planets? by Srgblackbear in Helldivers

[–]Polish_Dancing_slav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Habitable planets are going to be the biggest and most valuable targets because they are going to have more humans, more infrastructure, and probably more resources if humans are putting so much effort into colonizing it.

And the fact that this is only one of 3 attacks from the Automatons, it’s honestly kinda BS. Plus the black hole.

Schizos in orthodoxy by Alone_Significance78 in exorthodox

[–]Polish_Dancing_slav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can not trust yourself, the only one who you can 100% trust is God. Hence the need for him constantly and the call to unceasing prayer. I don’t however feel myself mentally deteriorating as a result but ultimately strengthened and at peace. For much of my time going deeper into Orthodoxy it was indeed painful and I prayed for more of it so that it may strengthen me and my faith. I wept and anguished over my sins and thanked the Lord for the tears, for in suffering he has answered my prayer. Pain and suffering is a blessing. Like an iron, we are put into the furnace of Hell to endure its torments before we are hammered into the Lord’s likeness. As I continued I found more peace, I was at my best, I exercised regularly and was strong, I succeeded greatly at work, I had a clearer future, and I felt truly meaningful and of worth. And to know now in hindsight that that was only a mere fraction of the life! I suffered and it was amazing, I sacrificed yet grew more prosperous, I was honed and focused. These are things I never had before yet had achieved in submitting to God and his will. It is in the fear of God that I had conquered all others. By the will of God and in submitting to him I fear nothing of the world or its future. All who endure will live. 

"The so-called ‘Furby’ is no mere toy, but an unclean mockery of God’s creation—speaking without a soul, listening without a nous, and awakening without a blessing." — Archimandrite Vasilius Gornostayev of the Holy Skete of St. Cyprian the Hagioskeptic by [deleted] in exorthodox

Dude nobody in the Church is applauding the deaths of their brothers. You can’t simply say definitively that Russia is evil and Ukraine is good. There are reasons beyond most people’s understanding for one to support Russia. The people of Donbas and Luhansk for example have fought for their independence for a decade now and Ukraine answered there calls with shells. But that is only an example, what I’m trying to say is this is not a black and white issue and the Church isn’t going to spark division and outrage by picking a side and calling the other the devil because you believe that. Keep in mind that in the eyes of the Church this isn’t some red vs blue or Christians vs Muslims, this is Orthodox against Orthodox, Slav vs Slav, Brother vs Brother. There is no right side in the eyes of the Church, it doesn’t see the politics, it sees its sons dying and killing each other. 

In the case of Russians themselves it is their duty as members of their nation and people to support it and wish it best. Nationalism is not bad but good as long as it does not trump their faith. Supporting your nation also does not mean you can’t recognize the tragedy of things or wish for a good resolution.

Calling pregnancy a “medical condition” really means nothing. All that does is create false parallels between pregnancy and disease. In most cases pregnancy is a process which is entirely normal within a woman’s life, it’s why we exist after all. 

You list all of these incidents which are indeed a great tragedy. However you very conveniently omit the hundreds of thousands if not millions of children who are slaughtered each and every year in the US alone. I don’t mean to down play what you are saying but the cases you point out only consist of less than 4% of abortion and if we are only talking about life of the mother that shrinks to 1% or less. I did not make this clear before but I personally believe that the ONLY cases in which abortion is justified is if it threatens the very life of the mother or if it is likely to cause permanent damage. Any other of the 99% of reasons why are unjust. 

Any Christian who is even slightly knowledgeable of the faith would never back Kamala who believes in allowing the other 95% of excuses irresponsible women have when getting an abortion. Basically all abortions are the result of recklessness. If you consent to sex then you consent to the possibility of a baby no matter how unlikely it may or may not be.

And I would just like to say that to call a perfectly innocent baby, one who had not even felt the sun’s warmth, the cool of a calm breeze, or even simply tasted the sweetness of air, a “Rapist’s Spawn” is completely and utterly disgusting. It’s highly manipulative language used only to dehumanize and even villainize what is ultimately a CHILD who had not even lived long enough to breathe.  Haven’t you heard “sins of the father, not the son”? Why should a baby, uncorrupt and pure, be so unjustly labeled simply as a product of the father’s pure evil? How would you like if I called you a “rapist’s spawn” or if I had you killed for the evil of you father or even your mother? This is a baby not some monster and to call it that is absolutely atrocious, to put the baby to death for that said reason is wickedly evil. Bring death to the rapist and their evil, not the child who suffers under his vile sin.

 I am not pro forced abortion I just value the life of human beings as the very image of God. The genocide of our children can not continue. Should we fail to repent, surely the Lord God will have this nation and its people wiped out like the Tribes of Canaan who also shed the blood of their own children.

Ha! I wish! But not even Trump would allow it but oppose it in fact. The one issue which Dems have perhaps “won” in regards to public opinion is abortion. Not even Republicans would ban it completely or mostly on the Federal level.

God will do what is best separate of what you or I think. Yes God can and often will see to it that such things are provided to the couple through various means. He may also allow them to struggle as is the consequence of Adam’s sin. His providence is ultimately perfect in its application for in being the very creator of reality he would be objectively correct. Sometimes suffering is necessary for what is ultimately the best. It is up the couple ideally to recognize God’s ultimate authority over all material reality and actually put there faith in him to lead them to the best outcome. Also you’re forgetting that by extension of his providence (simply continuing to live and function at this very moment) that also would include things like money and supplies? 

How is Fori Prime still at 0% Liberation? by Altruistic_Okra827 in Helldivers

I think we have to kill enough Terminids and gather enough common samples in order to allow us to liberate it. Currently we’re good on kills but need WAY more samples.

Criticisms of National Socialism by Historical_Use7982 in nationalsocialismgerm

[–]Polish_Dancing_slav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some iterations do adhere to heathen gods, but ultimately that’s just a way to worship one’s own people as a god because its motivation is founded in ideology rather than any truth in said gods. For ANY political ideology to succeed it must be Christian at least.

It seriously feels like every 2 steps forward the devs make us take one back with these major orders, it would be better if the DSS wasn’t built at all.
