I remember, his classmate that he lived with in the same cell for four years at the Holy Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra, said, “He didn’t listen to the teacher in class. He would read books. He was surrounded by books. When we asked him, ‘Why don’t you listen to the teacher?’ he answered, ���I’ve already read all that.’ But when the teacher would suddenly say something not quite right, he immediately noticed: ‘I’m sorry, but St. Symeon the New Theologian said about that subject…’ The teacher wouldn’t even know how to answer. Such was his knowledge. He told one friend, ‘I can read two-three books a day.’ He was a very shy person. When he was a deacon, having just finished seminary, he would gather dozens and hundreds of people for Bible talks at the Krutitsy podvoriye. I was there for these talks. If you didn’t say bye to him on time, then you couldn’t get out of the hall, because there were so many people. It was impossible to push through to him, and he lived for it; he breathed it.”

@anteroductor@spiderking232@the_primuspilus Yes horses became extinct in North America post ice age ,
But there is no concrete evidence that they survived it especially compared to the contrary
@spiderking232@the_primuspilus There isn’t evidence either of Old world style steel such as swords and other weapons in a pre columbian America
And the elephants by the jaredites
@spiderking232@the_primuspilus Of course there is no archaeological evidence just like there is none outside of the church for the plates existing
Always convenient out of cult land

@spiderking232@the_primuspilus Ur retarded , you also believe there were chariots like such from Europe.
Domesticated horses came from Europe and horses themselves were reintroduced by the Europeans
Riding the line between talking theology / doing debates, and all the other issues like geopolitics, lit, satire has been an odd thing. For some it is confusing, for others, not an issue.
However, after 10 years of mixed content, I feel that the time of online theology debate for me has come to a close. No one has of yet told me to say this - it’s a decision I’ve pondered for a while. I would rather focus on other topics I find interesting and religion is authentically at the parish level, not online anyway. It seems as if online theology debate is pretty much done. Onward to producing fun content on the other subjects!
