If they exile God, then we will bring him into the underground.

@Arcadian1770 Who is he quoting and what's the context of this discussion?

@_kruptos What's ironic is that even right wing nationalists can feel estranged from their own people.

This has do with shared finality and not shared nationality.

@GloveAcademia Is Photius saying that the Word himself particularizes the human nature?

[Orthodox underground @StOriginsbenji]

@Real_Rye_Bread So true. First Fr Stephen, now Dr Branson.

@tndkfc @RomanosOrthodox There are different senses to the word God. Thats how.

@Theophi23379899 @uncle_deluge It's also institutionallly discontinuous because of the schism. To "go back from" and "go forward from" pressuposes a mechanism of transmission and continuous memory which is primarily institutional.

@Real_Rye_Bread @Craig_Truglia @Scholarius1 @OrthodoxEthos This is true. Enthusiasm seems a much more significant part of what counts for an ecumenical council to be authoritative. This is something that seems culturally very foreign to catholics and protestants.

@kibratanta @OrthodoxPole81 The only people who dooming Europeans to hell are Europeans themselves who refuse to have children because of material comfort.

There's no one to blame but whites themselves. They don't even seem to mind the immigration.

@seraphim199 @FrLillie Got it.

@Tremellius @desertcynic That was my point from the beginning. I agree with you. He thinks it supports his thesis, the quote doesn't.

[Orthodox underground @StOriginsbenji]

@Tremellius @desertcynic But Cyril's quote is not about the existence of the divine council. He appropriating a verse that isn't speaking to his thesis about the non-existence of the divine council.

[Orthodox underground @StOriginsbenji]

@Tremellius @desertcynic The text he cited has nothing to do with the existence or non existence of a divine council. I explained St Cyril's point in the passage cited.

[Orthodox underground @StOriginsbenji]

@Tremellius @desertcynic They don't. St Cyril is establishing God's creation of man as an act that does not depend on their cooperation.

[Orthodox underground @StOriginsbenji]

@pillowscars @desertcynic That's exactly what he's saying. Since St Cyril believes in the principalities, powers, authorities, intellectual powers etc he is not arguing against their existence, but for God's independence from them in the act of creating man.

@desertcynic Seraphim Hamilton ?

[Orthodox underground @StOriginsbenji]

@LaymansSeminary @MedWhiteAcolyte Of course you can. Because the Church is Christ's body. So its not a category mistake, because the Church is the category of the Body of Christ. The idea that the church is an analogy to Christ's body implies its external to Him. That's where you find the nestorian tendency.

@DaniloF91162004 Do you think there's truth to it ?

[Orthodox underground @StOriginsbenji]

@DaniloF91162004 Joseph Farrel observes the same thing. It is absolutely damning. From that point on, the father of scholastic soteriology reasoned from first principles external to Christ himself. That's the sign that the project will ultimately not work where it actually matters. Christology.
