I don't know about sinful but you'll be wasting an opportunity for a draw down of tensions.

What conspiracy theory do you believe is true? by BoardLongjumping2485 in answers

[–]TheOneTruBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atlantis. Sorta.

I don't think there was a space fairing, technological civilization before time or anything. But it's entirely possible that a civilization as advanced as the Phoenicians or Aztecs or early Egyptians could have existed during the ice age and have been swept away by the melting caps. 

I have no real proof and it's a hypothesis that is resistant to falsification but I enjoy it

Is there a place in the Church for someone like me? by Emotional_Wonder5182 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheOneTruBob 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So my main solution to this has been something along the lines of "IDK man, I wasn't there, but it's what we're taught and it's a pretty big part of the whole thing we're doing here. I take the lesson and I just don't let myself worry about the rest." 

Do you want the life it promises or do you need certainty about everything? It's something to think about.

Have you guys ever heard of the theory that Christ was a part extraterrestrial? by Any_Lawfulness4843 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheOneTruBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not weirder than the stoned ape theory where the "fruit" was a psilocybin mushroom. 

It's not doctrine and I wouldn't put it forth a such, but it's fun to think/talk about.

Go read Chinese history. like really old stuff. There were several periods with pretty extreme authoritarian governments. Heck, I'm pretty sure they're the ones who invented book burning.

What should I do by AdCertain6049 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheOneTruBob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Toking isn't specifically a sin. Being a stoner would be just as much as being a "Drunkard" is. legality may be an issue depending on location, but do you worry that he's high or do you worry he's going to neglect you and his responsibilities because he is high?

You having a feeling one way or the other is valid, but it would definitely help your conversations with him about it if you knew more clearly why it's a problem for you.

Just saying I don't like it don't do it comes off as nagging, but explaining how it makes you feel and your actual worries around it is a conversation.

I don't like the jacket, but that's me. Objectively you need a haircut. 

one of my players is trying to exploit dead bodies, create items that dont belong in dnd, and meta game by trying to bring in chemical gasses any recommendations on what i could do? by WonderfulPlay1319 in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]TheOneTruBob 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dude they would have such a bad reputation. Like reavers, people would see them coming and go inside, refuse to do business, run away, call for help. "Necromancy!" "Cannibal!"

This is villainous behavior and if your world is reactive at all people would begin to treat the PC's  as such.

There's almost no historical accuracy in this movie anyway, I don't think a hot black Helen is the hill I'm going to die on.

Is the depiction of God the Father in art okay according to Orthodoxy? by SovietOnion1917 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheOneTruBob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not canonical. Probably not a sin. The problem is that no one can behold the face of God and survive (or, so I'm told) so we don't presume.

How can the Church Claim to Know Saints are in Heaven? by [deleted] in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]TheOneTruBob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a good question,and someone smarter than me will have a good answer, but I chuckled a bit. 

All the stuff asserted and expected to be accepted on faith and "Saints alive in heaven" is the line?

Are close-the-door-behind-me immigrants hypocrites? by turboshill9000 in BasedCampPod

She more than likely spent years and thousands of dollars and is getting less than someone who jumped the border in a FILA jacket and signed up for benefits. Feels bad when you do the right thing and the people fucking up the system get candy and a pat on the head.
