Apparently, in light of this month, here’s a welcoming message for those new here:
This is after the Torah’s account in Numbers, which does not comment on the issue of Moses marrying a Cushite woman, which would be in the realm of modern day Ethiopia.
So demonstrate that “cushite” is a mistranslation or that any historical context implies cushites were not dark skinned. I don’t think you can.

I stand corrected on no medical expert agrees with you.
However, the American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds) is not an accredited medical body and since this statement was released, several scientific studies have come out showing not only that being transgender is not a mental illness, but that gender affirming care literally saves lives by improving mental health and reducing suicidality.
Whereas what the ACPeds are advocating for has been shown to actually increase suicidality and worsen mental health. I can show you those studies if you wish.
2024 ASP vice presidential candidate Lauren Onak travels from New England to attend a wedding in Columbus, Ohio and discovers she is a local hero.
@hillbilly_828 Except no medical expert agrees with you, especially the people who literally write the diagnosis of mental illness. The only reason you think it is a mental illness is because of your “feewings.”
Prove it’s a mental illness. Those who cannot prove their claims will fall.
“… just as no house ever falls to the ground by a sudden collapse, but only when there is some long-standing flaw in the foundation or when by long-continued neglect of its inhabitants, what was at first only a little drip breaks through and the protecting walls are gradually ruined. In consequence of long-standing neglect the gap becomes larger and the walls break away, and in time the drenching storm and rain pours in like a river. For "by slothfulness a building is brought low, and through lazy hands the house shall leak."
-St. John Cassian
I’ve been seeing this question a lot. And I don’t want people to feel ignored. It’s just a longer conversation then what I can give in a comment reply.
Leon Black walked out of the House Oversight Committee's Epstein interview today, refusing to answer questions about his NDAs with Epstein survivors.
The files already showed what he paid Epstein: $158 million between 2012 and 2017.
Two subpoenas followed him out.
Leon Black walked out of his House Oversight interview Friday rather than answer questions about NDAs tied to Epstein's victims.
The committee hit him with two subpoenas. His name runs through Epstein's own gift ledgers.
The files had it the whole time.
“See that none of you repays evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to all. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
1 Thessalonians 5:15-18
“…that on the day of the Lord Jesus we are your boast [pride] even as you are our boast.”
2 Corinthians 1:14
“holding forth the word of life so that I can boast [have pride] on the day of Christ that I did not run in vain or labor in vain.”
Philippians 2:16
“Therefore we ourselves boast [have pride] of you among the churches of God for your steadfastness and faith during all your persecutions and the afflictions that you are enduring.”
2 Thessalonians 1:4
Is it sinful for somebody to say they are proud to be American? Is that American idolatry in your view?
Not really and Orthodox Church is not the only true church. It is a true church among many and the Orthodox Church influenced the Anglican Church.
The passages in Leviticus are tied to an issue of not condemning overall homosexuality, but the issue being twofold
The passages in Leviticus condemn only men having sex with men, but not women having sex with women. The reason this one sided condemnation is found is because the text wasn’t about necessarily being against people with a same-sex orientation, because nobody in that ancient culture viewed sexual attraction as an orientation, but as a passion in which could be tamed (straight) or if it’s in excess like gluttony (you’ll then be able to crave even men). They didn’t want men to be seen acting like women because then this would dismantle the gender hierarchy they put into place and thinking men having sex with each other would lead rise to women being able to get equal rights if not at least get into leadership roles. So the main purpose of the condemnation in the Torah had to deal with establishing a gender hierarchy.
Plus, the only homosexuality condemned or encountered in the ancient world was pederasty (which is evil), cultic worship practices among the Canaanites and exploitative practices such as through sex slavery in the regions.

@ElCapitanHaya Not what I’m asking you to explain, which shows you are being disingenuous at this point.
