I Keep torturing myself on World Orthodox forums.

I Keep torturing myself on World Orthodox forums.

I don't know why I just do but if this doesn't stop me from posting on them nothing will. [edited out quote]

:shock:

Goodness ! Why don't you exit from such places, Justice ?

As has been said, some people just will never believe and it is impossible for them to understand. If I were you, unless you are unusually thick-skinned, I would ditch those forums. These World Orthodox posters get hostile and can make a True Orthodox person feel not so good. We don't need these attacks !

Stay where you are appreciated.

Thank you Barbara for your response. I guess I wanted to look again to see if there were anymore answers. Though I'm finally done with that forum!

World Orthodox forums can be quite addictive especially with the drama in private forums where emotions are rarely held in check. It is not unto one's salvation to go and post in such forums. I only visit to send PMs to my friends who remain there, but even that is tempting. The only thing that keeps me from posting there is that my spiritual father has insisted that I no longer post threads there.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

Justice. Sometimes the loudest and harshest arguments are in-family arguments. I am one of those “World Orthodox” New Calendarists who belong to the same two forums that you do. I have read pointy comments made by the New Calendarists about the Old Calendarists, and I have read pointy comments made by Old Calenderists about New Calendarists. That has been going on for hundreds of years. What is worse than their arguing are posters like you who quote from one forum to another. I saw it happen on the other forum about a year ago. I think that poster and you are both disgusting. My advice to you: Grow up.

While Justice is still a teenager, on a quest for the Truth, which is Christ, the other poster is a grown man with filthy Internet habits. The two cannot be compared. Justice is still innocent; the other has lost both his innocence and faith.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

Justice needs to learn that you do not go behind forum's backs. If he wants to argue a point, more power to him, but it is wrong to go behind people's backs and quote them on another forum.
