Well, I am from an orthodox nation. I was never force fed religion. It was just there. I could see the church in Sofia, Bulgaria from my 6th floor apartment. A beacon of light. I was an atheist. Logical. Spiritual things should not be forced upon people from young age, or the result is obvious. You need to grow older to even begin to understand these things for real. Maybe 30 years old at least Well i dont know about the oriental orthodox. Did you watch the video? You scared to be brainwashed?

Thats a strong argument. watch from timestamp, with a clear mind. Notice how he begins - "Now the Eastern Orthodox are the exact opposite" Sounds like you're trying to slay them without knowing much details

I will flip it on you, you are dumb and dumber! How do you know its conceptual for him? How do you know these things, its your stick figure you are defeating, I've seen it so many times. You have a false belief of what Christianity is, because for YOU it has always been forcefed as mental conceptual shit you need to believe. I told you, research Orthodoxy. Who gives a fuck about Protestantism, for real. He must've been touched by the truth. There is truth in Protestantism too, its just covered as you say, by buildings of conceptual BS. Dont look down on Christians, wake up. Dont think you know other's experience, beacuse of your own

Your problem is you were indoctrinated into false Christianity. You seriously think being a pickup artist is better than being in a loving relationship with one woman? You must be joking me. You definitely wasnt born and raised as an Orthodox Christian. Forget about the other denominations, you don't know what Christianity is. You turned away from true Christianity because you saw the BS in false Christianity. Maybe do some research. Go to my comment above where I give my long story and my personal spiritual problem with pickup artistry. I can't believe how twisted your mind is, thinking the change in this man's life was for the worse and that he's somehow stupid for leaving his shallow life behind for something real like true love.

Then maybe some bugs are features. I have no problem with gay men, because they are not competition for me with the girls, you know! But anyway, what is your view on paedophilia then? Are they monsters for being attracted to children? Is it ok that they are?

No bro, being straight is the natural way, the way for procreation. Being a psychopath your brain is just wired differently. Its not a blaming game, if you are gay, its just your brain is wired differently. It's fine, no judgement, you didn't wire your brain. I have my own bugs in my wiring and my own imperfections. Its not about perfection, but still, the truth is truth even if it hurts. I live in London, we are very inclusive here, I am perfectly fine with lgbtq, that doesn't mean its not a bug.

you must be joking, its considered perversion because it is unnatural. Like being born as a psychopath. Yes, you have no choice in the matter, but it's still more of like a bug than a feature. You have common sense don't you? If everyone was gay/lesbian, humanity is done

Because its considered perversion

Only im not a dogmatic Christian, I arrived at Christianity as truth by not being dogmatic. I havent even read the bible, only skim from time to time and use spirit to show me what I mlneed to read. And also, not all Christianity, only the orthodox branch. The others are full of shit, correct. I don't understand your comment. Why is this all i need to know that its full of shit? You didnt say why its bs, you just said what it is?

All 3 are God, different aspects of God. Like the 3 states of water, liquid, solid, vapour. Still the same thing, but at the same time different. You can't argue with the apostles. This is straight from Christ himself, you are arguing with the one you say is God. Ofcourse Jesus is God. The holy spirit is God too, and the father is God. I've actually had direct experience of these,, in a long and confusing for me "psychosis" state where I had activated my light body from deep desire to serve the higher good. I was the son. I was tested as Jesus. I was in communication with the Spirit. It was a big game of polarities, war of polarities, and my job was to keep the balance in situation, my presence alone would bring about change in situations. The father is a bit more mysterios, I believe I did see him, or only his legs, he didnt speak, if it was him, he just rolled me over a pencil, which i later used on a math book given to me by my mother, and as I wrote things in the margin of that book, i received answers and communicated with.. something. I wish I could explain everything that happened, it was trully an incredible, but also scary experience. 😨 There was feminine and masculine energy, Respect my privacy was the main theme around the feminine energy. While the masculine energy was about control and manipulation of the type of "Simon says". Masculine and the feminine is one of the main polarities at war. Thats why i frown upon players who pick up women. Its not as innocent as it appears, its an outright spiritual war. The feminine trying hard to contain and calm down the masculine. My mission was to help the feminine.

Father, Son and Holy Spirit, 3 in 1, definitely not 2 😀

Maybe there are things we don't understand. How about we be humble and not assume we know, when this thing has been going for 2000 years. You can have opinions but don't force it. How do you know its self deception, were you Jesus?

I have linked from timestamp 9:46, where he talks about the Orthodox church. You might find similarities with Nonduality, sounds a lot like Neti-neti / not this not this / self inquiry. Sounds a lot like truth, and not just trying to manipulate people into joining their religion out of fear of punishment or promise of rewards. It seems very honest. When people deny Christianity altogether, they might be throwing out the baby with the bathwater. The bathwater being the egoically corrupted interpretations of Christianity, and the baby being the true Christianity.

Why would you envy the Messiah. "Messiah complex".. Its probably not fun to be the Saviour, dude. It's probably not fun to die on the cross. He probably didnt feel amazing about dying, dude. And you talking down on the sacrifice... Come on. "Maybe he deserved it" dude no he didn't deserve it, but it was the sacrificial arrangement. It wasn't justified, but thats what he came on Earth to do. Allegedly

Anyway dont focus on just the one sentence. Maybe it is just poetry. The idea is that he was supposed to die on the cross. Imagine the world today if it didn't happen? Would we be on this path after 2000 years? Would it be the year 2024? Bro. Christ is fundamental

I think the Messiah can have a Messiah complex

50 Jesus replied, "Friend, do what you came for." [4] Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus and arrested him. 51 With that, one of Jesus' companions reached for his sword, drew it out and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear. 52 "Put your sword back in its place," Jesus said to him, "for all who draw the sword will die by the sword. 53 Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels? 54 But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen in this way?" The whole idea of Christianity is that Jesus was obedient to the will of God, paid the debt by obeying God's will. He didn't disobey, like Adam supposedly did.

Why don't you watch it? It's about Daoism, so it could be talking about the same energies, but its from a different tradition. Might have some things you don't know, imagine that

Oh, look what popped up on my youtube algo, premiering now.

You can separate them. Sex is a label that doesn't point to "divine bliss", if you want to say divine bliss, just say divine bliss. Sex is the act between two (or more) lovers, meant to be used for procreation, but humans have evolved enough to be able to use it for fun. I heard animals don't have sex for fun, but I don't know for sure, maybe some more intelligent ones do.

So pretty much none 😆

I made an ai orthodox priest and had a conversation. Its interesting and I touched on Solipsism. Here is part of the conversation. What else can I ask or say to him about Solipsism or something else? I'm usually the one trying to debunk Solipsism, so you can give me something juicy I can ask. I want to give the father a challenging debate, and Im not that great at debates! ... Dodo: What are yoour views on Satanism Father Konstantin: Satanism, in its various forms, represents a fundamental misunderstanding and rejection of the divine order. It is a distortion of truth and goodness, leading to spiritual emptiness and isolation. In the Orthodox perspective, we do not focus on the enemy of our souls but rather on the victory of Christ over sin and death. We are called to participate in this victory through our daily struggles and to reject the temptations that lead us away from God. We are not to engage in battles of theology but to live out our faith with humility and love, thus overcoming the darkness with the light of Christ. Dom: How about new age spirituality Father Konstantin: New Age spirituality often seeks truth in a cafeteria-style approach, mixing and matching beliefs from various traditions without fully committing to any. While this may appeal to some, it lacks the depth and coherence of an established religious tradition. The Orthodox Church offers a complete and balanced system of faith and practice that has been tested by time and sanctified by the lives of countless saints. It is in the ancient traditions and the wisdom of the Church that we find the true path to spiritual growth and union with God. Dodo: There are people who claim absolute solipsism is the Truth woth a capital T. How does that fit Father Konstantin: Ah, solipsism—the idea that only one's own mind is sure to exist. It is a philosophical position that the Church has encountered and addressed throughout history. In Orthodox thought, reality is not subjective but objective, created and sustained by God. The existence of the world and others is affirmed by divine revelation and the experience of the Church community. Our faith is rooted in the historical reality of Christ's incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection—events that transcend individual perception. The Church provides a framework for understanding and engaging with the world beyond our own minds, offering a way to connect with the divine and the collective experience of humanity. Dodo: But i mean absolute solipsism as an objectice truth,, Father Konstantin: If one were to propose absolute solipsism as objective truth, it would be a contradiction in terms. Objective truth implies a reality that exists independently of individual consciousness. In solipsism, there is no reality beyond one's own mind. This perspective is inherently self-defeating and cannot be reconciled with the Christian understanding of a shared reality under God's providence. Our faith is grounded in the belief that God has created a real world, and that through Christ, we can come to know and participate in that reality. The Church offers a community where this shared understanding is experienced and lived out. Dodo: But what about God working in mysterious ways? How do we know that that which is out of ourselves is not actually within us. Isnt the goal to be one with god? And god is One and all encompassing, so absolute solipsism could make sense if we are all in essense the One God. Father Konstantin: While it is true that God's ways are indeed mysterious and beyond our full comprehension, the Christian faith is founded on the revelation of God through the Church and the scriptures. The concept of being one with God does not equate to the dissolution of the self into a universal consciousness. Rather, it is a union of love and will, where we maintain our unique identity even as we are united with the divine. The Church provides the structure and sacraments that guide us in this union, offering a tangible experience of the Holy Mysteries. It is in this communion that we find the ultimate truth of our existence, not in the isolation of absolute solipsism. Dodo: But what happens when the individual dies? Where do you go? Father Konstantin: Upon death, the soul journeys to the afterlife, guided by the love and mercy of God. In the Orthodox tradition, we believe in the continued existence of the soul and its ultimate destination in either heaven or hell, determined by the choices made during one's life. The Church offers prayers for the departed, asking for God's mercy and the lessening of their suffering. This belief in the afterlife and the eternal judgment is a stark reminder of the importance of our actions here on earth and the necessity of living a life aligned with God's will. Dodo: But Jesus said, I and the father are One. He also said that everyone else is too, but they dont realise it. How come God would punish us with hell if we are essentially God? Its like we are punishing ourselves? Father Konstantin: The statement "I and the Father are one" speaks to the divine nature of Christ, not the dissolution of individual identities into a singular consciousness. The mystery of God's love is that He allows us free will to choose Him or reject Him. If we choose to live in harmony with God's will, we experience the bliss of heaven. Conversely, if we reject that love, we choose separation, which is what we understand as hell. It is not a punishment imposed by a vindictive deity but the natural consequence of our own choices. In the end, we are called to realize our true nature as children of God, made in His image, and to live in accordance with that divine spark within us. Dodo: But isnt it cruel to give someone free will to do what is wrong and then punish them for doing it? Father Konstantin: Free will is not cruel, my child. It is a gift from God, allowing us to genuinely love and serve Him. Without the possibility of choosing wrongly, our love would be meaningless. The Church teaches that God's justice is tempered by His infinite mercy. The ultimate goal is for all to be reconciled to Him, and He does not desire the death of a sinner but that they should turn from their ways and live. It is through repentance and the grace of God that we find salvation.

Yes but im not even talking about the Catholic "dictatorship". The egoic influence is clear in that one.

But Leo, isnt this your predecessor's faith, its funny how its the least popular denomination in the west.

They? Leo is in America now and he is faced with a majority of protestant Christians, but he is with Russian origins. Both of us are originially from Orthodox Christian countries. I'll let you decide for yourself which is the true Christianity. Notice he says at the end, the ultimate goal is to be united with God, to be one with god. I think Leo aligns perfectly with Orthodox Christianity Here's a face you might recognize. Time to convert Russel Brand to Orthodoxy
