@AHollowSparrow @geomesender Ce spun eu si ce zici tu 😂😂😂 sunt perfect de acord cu tine, la fel in legatura cu securistu Daniel, dar cartile lui Cinamar NU sunt un reper original macar, ce sa mai zic de sanatos

@S23David23S @geomesender Poate dacă 5 oameni îți zic că la ora 5 e ora 5… ar trebui să consideri faptul că e ora 5?

Tunelurile din Bucegi... sau de ce nu iese fum fără foc. Am făcut această fotografie pe data de 14 septembrie 2023. Este o ușă blindată uriașă, situată pe un versant abrupt din Bucegi. Nu sunt încă autorizat să vă ofer coordonatele exacte ale locului. Cert este că acolo nu există niciun drum accesibil pentru mașini. Cine, cum și de ce a construit-o pentru a împiedica accesul în tunel... nu știu să vă răspund, dar un lucru e sigur: tunelurile există 😶

@Fityeth @ipostrandom21 @grok stop using grok as a crystal ball know it all and use your God given brain; it is obviously an old video as you see it's the original Kanye talking, not his botched clone they replaced him with after the Alex Jones masked interview

@ipostrandom21 Hey @grok how old is this video?

Kanye West goes OFF in explosive laughter, declaring the entire world owes him an apology as he claims Kim’s empire is crashing down, accusing her in the shipment truck scandal and saying the same person who tried to destroy him is now watching it all backfire 😳 “I told God to bless those who bless me and curse those who curse me.” “They laughed when I spoke… now the whole world is watching the plot twist.”

@AHollowSparrow @geomesender Poate, dar 99% din ideile lui Cinamar sunt xerox new age, i.e., in romanul primul tunel, incaperea de sub marea piramida cu tablite de aur (Edgar Cayce, Maurice Doreal), civilizatia subpamanteana in Cristalul Eteric, (Ossendwoski), reptilieni in Geneza Uitata (Sitchins pur) etc.

@S23David23S @geomesender Am documentat datele exacte la anumite chestii extrem de relevante pentru RO(=33)mania sus, iar ordinea lor cronologică este cel puțin suspectă dacă ar fi să ingineresti invers cum gândesc ei când au un asset Ike nu a mentionat niciodata aurul monoatomic. Doar templarii am auzit

@AHollowSparrow @geomesender Am citit cartea cu 9 ani in urma dar inca sunt de parere ca seria de romane a lui Radu Cinamar nu sunt decat un mix mediocru autohton intre Sitchins si David Icke. Cinamar avea o idee originala cu pestera de aur al lui Chronos din Pergamentul Secret, dar cam atat...

@geomesender Citește "Viitor cu Cap de Mort" de Radu Cinamar, dacă nu ai făcut-o deja.

@Thomasdelvasto_ Telling them to go dance is poor advice, you're just throwing the 'hot potato' in the arms of dance instructors. Ultimately it is a problem of under-socialisation, and these men will never learn to socialise properly if every group they encounter tells them to go somewhere else.

Talking a bit about the so-called “orthodox dating crisis.” I run the young adult group at our church, and we have a ton of too online converts, myself included. One thing I’ve noticed hosting events is that all too often, even if there are young women at a Bible study or other event, the young male converts who are obsessed with obscure church history, bashing Protestants, and exact translations of specific words in scripture tend to dominate conversations. I’ve explicitly wanted to help folks pair up by running the group, but it’s hard when most conversations are dominated by this overly academic, theological, frankly Protestant approach to the faith, instead of genuinely trying to connect with the other folks at the event. Even when I call this out and try to push people to chat more casually, a lot of guys just can’t seem to help themselves. I think a huge issue is that many of these young orthodox male converts just don’t have much of a life outside of Orthodoxy, frankly. They get super into the church and the history of Orthodoxy, which is great, but if that’s the only thing they are willing or able to talk about when socializing, they’re going to turn off young women real quick! Which is totally fair, from the woman’s perspective. If I were a woman I wouldn’t want to marry a man who only wants to lecture me about obscure points of theology. What’s worse is that some of these guys use the doctrines they’ve memorized as bludgeons to dominate others. I haven’t seen it too much with sexism in my parish, thank God, but so many fellow converts will quote Saints or church councils in order to win arguments and prove they are “more Orthodox.” It’s extremely tiresome and an abuse of the sources they’re quoting, as far as I’m concerned. My overall view is that the young men need to get some real hobbies outside of learning about the Orthodox faith. My suggestion is learning to dance! That’s where I met my fiancé, and it is great for us intellectual types because it gets us out of our heads, and into our bodies. With partner dance especially, you get to learn how to lead a woman, and respond to her subtle cues that you may not notice otherwise. Plus, let’s be real, being a good dancer is sexy! Anyway, the Orthodox dating crisis is really just a reflection of the broader dating crisis as well, at the end of the day. I don’t think we are that special in these problems, modern life seemingly makes men and women feel more isolated and alienated from each other than ever before. All we can do is try our best to counsel the young single folks in our lives, and pray that future generations will come together in healthier ways.

@BubuDavid1 @iamrjknight Not sure if you are trolling, but here is an easy first Google search result. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seraphim_…

@S23David23S @iamrjknight Which scripture is that? Or is that some Calvinist nonsense?

It is a heavy judgment when God leaves a man to his own lusts and withdraws the restraining guidance of His Holy Spirit. Many think judgment is only when God strikes, but Scripture shows something even more terrifying. God may give a man over to what he insists on loving. Romans 1 says this with fearful clarity. “Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity” (Romans 1:24). That is not freedom. That is judgment. When God lets the sinner have the sin he refuses to forsake, the soul is not being liberated. It is being handed over to its own ruin. This is why David cried with trembling, “Do not cast me away from Your presence and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me” (Psalm 51:11). He knew that the most frightening thing was not losing comfort, reputation, position, or earthly blessing. It was to be left without the nearness, conviction, correction, and mercy of God. A man abandoned to himself will not rise. He will sink. His desires will rule him, his conscience will grow dull, his sin will feel normal, and his heart will become harder. “My people did not listen to My voice… so I gave them over to the stubbornness of their heart, to walk in their own devices” (Psalm 81:11-12). So we must pray for mercy. Lord, do not leave us to ourselves. Do not give us what our sinful hearts demand. Restrain us, convict us, wound our pride, guide us by Your Spirit, and keep us near to Christ. Better to be corrected by God than abandoned to our own lusts.

@RomaniaU93389 People will go in debt for life to live in one of those concrete radiators in the middle of nowhere then laugh at those living with their parents or in the countryside, its funny

Eu nu înțeleg câtă șpagă să dai încât să poți construi asemenea ghetouri moderne... înalte, înghesuite, nu spații verzi, nu alei, nu zonă verde de incintă, de protecție, nu iluminat LED, nu mobilier urban, nu locuri de joacă, de socializare, zone de separare.. nimic

@BraveFathers @ThinkInPeach The story is definitely fabricated, and a pathetic strawman. You don't go from 28 years of nothingness to approaching a girl who says yes and marries you based on a grifter dating coach's crash course. LOL. Whoever believes that I have a bridge to sell you.

@ThinkInPeach Sad. Why would you marry the first female to give you attention?

> be 28yo client of mine > never had a girlfriend > never been on a real date > years of anti-social behavior to undo > late 20s hits, loneliness gets loud > "hiring a coach feels pathetic" > do it anyway > first 6 weeks are brutal > finally have a real conversation with a woman > ask her out > first date of your life at 28 > she likes you back > marries you Late start beats no start.

@andreibratucu Being an atheist was all the rage like in 2011, when the world still had a semblance of normalcy and direction. Everything went to hell afterwards, from economics, to culture and gender relationships, so people are turning in droves to faith/religion, it should be obvious.

de cand s-a reparins asa de tare scanteia asta a religiei in discursul public? parca de ceva timp are toata lumea impresia ca trebuie sa fim de acord ca un baiat a transformat apa in vin si sa ne bucuram de icoane si biserici si pana de curand traiam cu impresia ca devine un lucru arhaic, mai ales vazand in repetate randuri mizeria din jurul institutiei bisericesti e doar cool din nou sa te dai religios? e un curent politic? PS: Cred ca fiecare e liber sa-si aleaga in ce crede si cum o face, fara presiune sociala de a accepta un Dumnezeu anume sau vreo dogma din batrani. Mi se pare grotesc sa te "lauzi" cat esti de credincios pupand icoane sau citand dintr-o "carte sfanta"

@Dafcza @PathOfMen_ My comment wasn't about you so idk why you butt in. The post I replied to said ''walk into ANY room, give a RANDOM guy a "what's up bro" etc, not about organising family meetings with your best friends. It's clear this doesn't apply to you. Reading comprehension 101.

@s97_david @PathOfMen_ Last friday me and my wife invite 30 best friends to our little party.. There were 3 my closest friends with wifes and kids I know and see every week since we were 3 years old.. You cant generalize that to every social beeing :)..

if you're under 30 and you can walk into any room, give a random guy a "what's up bro" like you've known him for years, ask people genuine questions about their lives, and make a girl smile without trying too hard — you'll go far in life. nobody is doing this. everyone is in their head, on their phone, waiting to be approached. be the warm one. be the curious one. you'll never be lonely or broke and opportunities will just find you naturally.

@blaksun27 @PathOfMen_ I have good reading & don't need fake internet 'friends'. The advice in this post is describing performing warmth as a tool for personal gain. That's a predatory, low stakes social engineering and manipulation tactic, and aware people can sniff out that bullshit from a mile away

@s97_david @PathOfMen_ Read again, Friends?

The only good news this miserably country has had in the past 12 months

@lizisamused It's the instrumentalisation and accesorisation of men. You don't just need to be taller than her, you need to be taller than her in 6inch heels and taller than her girlfriend's boyfriends. And 5ft8 isn't that short. Imagine being 5ft4. It's an awful world.

The height requirement in dating is painfully stupid. If a woman wants a guy who's taller than her, fine. Plenty of guys also want a girl who's shorter than they are. But wanting 6'+ strikes me as a trophy thing for women. I don't buy it's an innate preference because older generations didn't focus on this nearly as much. It was *nice* if your boyfriend was tall; it wasn't a requirement. And I've heard some horror stories from men: a girl showing up to the date, saying he's too short, & RUNNING AWAY. Women asking how tall the guy is as the convo opener on an app. Women can't claim they're the less superficial sex & then reject the vast majority of their dating pool. What especially bugs me is women who say everyone's allowed preferences. Wanting a guy who treats you well? Fine. Rejecting anyone who doesn't tower over you, regardless of other positive traits? Odd. And the dehumanizing language toward short men is insane. Claiming tall guys have better personalities, short guys are dangerous or angry, etc. What's especially wild: data shows height doesn't strongly impact a man's # of sexual partners. But this may change if women won't even give the 5'9" (literally average) guy a chance. The 5'9" Gen X & millennial men I knew did just fine. But Gen Z men increasingly have to impress online as opposed to IRL, so height becomes a more important factor. Even IRL, if the trend among women is to view any guy under 6' or so as a "manlet," that impacts most men. It's odd to watch women complain about objectification...and then objectify men to the point only 15% of women would give a guy who's 5'8" a shot on a dating app. I feel for young people. It's a different world now...

@peter733 @Fragbaza I haven't implied anything about self gratifying or having a license to sin in this case. There is simply the question that the church fails to answer with anything other than ''fast and pray'' in such a situation. Which seems like a bandaid on a bullet wound.

Overcoming Temptation Many argue that self-gratification is a necessary way for single people to relieve tension. However, we should look to the experience of the monastic tradition, where such “tension” eventually fades away through spiritual discipline. The Church’s approach to fighting this sin is based on the principle of “opposite action.” The primary danger is that the more one indulges, the more the desire grows. To combat this, the Church recommends fasting—specifically reducing rich foods—and physical labour or worship as a healthy outlet for physical energy. Most importantly, one must “cut off” thoughts rather than arguing with them. When seductive images appear, it is necessary to immediately switch your focus to other productive desires. Furthermore, let us remember that the word “sin” (hamartia-ἁμαρτία) literally means “to miss the mark.” Why is choosing self-gratification considered a mistake? Because it is a choice to accept an incomplete life. Such a person is not a monk, as they have not taken monastic vows, yet they are not building a full marital relationship either. This middle ground is tragic because marital intimacy is meant to be more than just physical; it is a deep, internal union of two souls. When a person limits themselves to the mere stimulation of their own body, their soul is deprived of the profound connection it was created to receive through a full and healthy sexual union. This is why the Church has always maintained that perverting the natural order of intimacy is a damaging and limiting practice. It is not out of a desire to deprive people of pleasure, but out of a desire to turn their gaze toward a “fullness of life.” The Holy Fathers spoke of this error as a “mistake” because it keeps a person from reaching their true potential. Therefore, those struggling with these habits should consider what they are trying to replace with this “surrogate” pleasure. Instead of wasting energy on a worthless practice, they should direct that energy toward building a truly fulfilling life, including within the realm of healthy human relationships.

@AethernaDei @PartisanRot @samson_samsen The OP he is replying to isn't wrong, it's just a debate about nuance. He isn't wrong either, it's still a debate about nuance and ''earned'' moral agency, but his counter argument is based on a strawman. Reaching a point where we argue endlessly 'bout earned or unearned agency.

@PartisanRot @s97_david @samson_samsen He just wants to argue. It’s clear what you meant.

The unforgiving person is the closest thing to a “good person,” even more so than the forgiving or empathetic person. A forgiving person is capable of forgiveness because he finds it easy to understand the behavior of those who offend him. This understanding is a function of possessing the capacity to act in a similar manner as those who offend him. He too is capable of hurting someone, and he knows it. However, a man who is incapable of forgiving people is equally repelled by offending them. He has a rigid but consistent ethical stance: he will not hurt, and he will not forgive when he is hurt. His lack of agency to be cruel to people mandates his lack of understanding for cruel character and thus makes him unforgiving of it. He will not forgive you for doing unto him what he cannot do to you. Right there is a good person.

@BBizman62112 @samson_samsen Obviously I can't know from a few words based on a tweet. Could simply be an avoidant. Verbal abuse, constant fighting and bickering, cheating, financial abuse, physical abuse, that is cluster B.

@s97_david @samson_samsen Ex spent a year trying to convince me that she loved me and that I’m a god to her. We fought once in a year , I didn’t understand why, still apologized to make peace. She started to devalue me subtly. Left for ´no reason’ one day and never talked to me again. Is this cluster B ?
