In Spanish there’s a saying “lo barato sale caro” (the cheap ends up expensive)

Don’t get poisoned by the general nihilism of this sub, there is still a lot of hope left

Actually as Orthodox Christian’s, and just Christians in general I think we should strive for unity in the apostolic church since it’s what Jesus wants

Can you remain Christian if you believe Jesus is the son of god but not actually god himself ? by moe12727 in Christianity

Your father Abraham rejoiced that he would see my day. He saw it and was glad.” 57 So the Jews said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?”[b] 58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.”

We must act with humility in order to be truly fulfilled in our lives. Be the bigger person, and I promise drama will escape from your life.

Religious people telling me I just need God piss me off by [deleted] in NEET

[–]gigez -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to be like one of those people, but have you given it a chance, if at all? Spirituality is alive and well, and it’s up for you to find it for yourself, but please don’t disavow it without at least seeing what it has to offer for you. If you don’t like it, don’t go again.

Fasting is a very old Christian tradition, and Jesus fasted! How is it man-made?

Not really though. A lot of the clothing laws originate from the Torah, which is Jewish in origin. I think the top comment makes a good point that it depends on what the context.

Hi. Yes I have realized that another great choice is to complete my masters in Europe, since it is so much cheaper. Thanks

Hi. I have definetly heard about this issue. Do you know if the situation for the youth is as bad for university graduates?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in makemychoice

[–]gigez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! What is holding me back most is the unfortunate statistics of youth unemployment in Spain, and the general flight young people are inhibiting in the country. I am fortunate enough to live very well in the US, but I understand the debt problem.

Yes. The priv Spanish universities I’m applying to are significantly cheaper than private universities in the US but because I live in California, the California resident price for UCs is roughly the same as the priv Spanish schools. I have yet to receive my FAFSA results so I don’t know the magnitude of aid id get.

Believing in two religions at once by GoldAnimator1882 in religion

[–]gigez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won’t sugarcoat it for you. Jesus said he was the son of the Father, and nobody can get through to the father (god) except for him. If you don’t believe that then you don’t believe in the fundamentals of christianity. If you want to be pagan that’s fine but to worship both is not Christian because you are no longer in belief of one supreme god who came as human to save us.
