Hi Friends, Since many of you are not aware that there is more to the site than just the forum, please see our newest article, a reflection I wrote on managing a forum, and the pros and cons of forums. It was something I wrote 9 years ago, but which I never published then; I edited and published it now, partly in response to recent article on Ancient Faith Blogs criticizing forums. Some Reflections on Managing an Orthodox Christian Discussion ForumIn Christ, Anastasios PS: all of our 17 articles can be accessed by clicking the link at the top of the page in the header "Articles." Or, if you don't see it for some reason: http://www.orthodoxchristianity.net/articles |

Was this posted in another thread? I think I read this recently. For the record, I greatly enjoy your site here. It has problems just like everything else where people are involved, but it is really nice to have a place where you can chat with other Orthodox Christians.

Why can't you just take your spiritual edification like a man?

+1 And get other viewpoints from other cultures pertaining to Orthodoxy. |

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more.
A hasty quarrel kindles fire,
and urgent strife sheds blood.
If you blow on a spark, it will glow;
if you spit on it, it will be put out;
and both come out of your mouth

Yes, it was in reply to the "Finding your way in online Orthodoxy" article, but it didn't garner much response, so I posted it as a separate thread. |

I plan on making a bridge between the articles and the forum, such that the two are integrated in the future, and comments are threads automatically. |
