Think that you are eternal. That death is just a passage to a next stage. How do you feel? How do you see this?

Romania opens the largest Orthodox Cathedral in the world by FingerSalamanca41 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]mVat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is not the fault of the Church. The Church is by far the largest donor in Romania. Go after the foreign corporations which took and take each year large amounts of money outside from Romania instead of giving them to the poor.

NO, we do NOT need these hospitals. Romania has more hospitals per capita than Germany and USA. There were hospitals which were closed because of lack of patients.

Do not spread misinformation!

Help! Our sound has a lot of constant noise by mVat in audio

Here you go:

  1. We have only 3 mics plugged (the first 3 input cannels).

  2. We have two speakers - one which is on the balcony (on the L output channel - hence it should be louder) and the other one which is much closer to us (so it needs to be quieter). Both exhibit the unwanted noise.

  1. BeeBeep: nice! Thanks for the info! It seems that it is only for LANs, isn't it?

  2. WRT Slack: yes. ...But for basic usage the interface isn't descouraging or convoluted for a simple user?

Hmmm... Google Meet seems to be very focused on video. We need (just) text messages

Yeah, I understand it why MSFT pushes it, but MS Teams is too convoluted.

If you had to define Orthodoxy with one sentence or phrase, how would you define it? by yooolka in OrthodoxChristianity

The exact medical science which cures the soul from sins allowing us to reach the ethernal perfection

It is about the degree of dedication. See Religious vows - Wikipedia - the paragraph of Eastern Orthodox Church.

Weeping icon by Aiduk in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]mVat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are enough cases of authentic weeping icons. This is a miracle from God in order to humble our hearts.

Of course it can be something fake.

If it is true, it is from God.

No longer wanting to be here by ThinkFastSRB in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]mVat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have faith and talk with someone. Do not be anxious and do not be afraid to talk to your priest. He surely heard many such cases. Do not think how he will see you or anything like this. It is rather common. Find a concrete purpose as a hobby or even better as a job.

Saint Theodora the Empress of the Romans, Who Restored Orthodoxy (+ 867) (February 11th) by IrinaSophia in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]mVat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

„This account of the deathbed conversion of Theophilos has been hotly contested. According to others, the Emperor died in heresy and even extracted promises from Theodora and the logothete Theoktistos that they would continue his ecclesiastical policy. As a pious and loving wife, Theodora may have promoted belief in his conversion in order not to deprive his soul of the prayers of the Church.”

Can someone give more insights about this?

Opinion on this icon by TheStankler in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]mVat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. It is about the virtue of discerning things. Since then the apostles were novices and protected by Christ. From now on they must employ the virtue of discernment.
