Very much appreciate this conversation gentlemen. I have very recently come to Christianity myself and grappling with many of these concepts myself as I recalibrate my entire reality. Many thanks to you
"We just put something into the world that is beautiful" . Yes!! Love this! I think of that on a weekly basis in my music class with a bunch of scrappy kids from around the world. To participate in bringing beauty and wonder and a step towards the divine into every day life with every day people is a deeply satisfying enterprise. Your conversation today is very uplifting, nay inspiring, and the best sell for the Supra I've heard yet! Sounds wonderful!
i wonder, but there’s probably a way to take this tradition of toasting and adding something like the Estuary protocol to help secular people align with the proper spirit.
John, I figured out how to use water and vinyl tubing to make glasses for noetic vision. Basically a technology based on the realism of baptism and the resulting implications about the nature of reality and perception. Can we talk? I’m mentally Orthodox. Baptized. Not recently confessed though. There’s no church on Maui. Just a mission with a priest that visits once a month. Almost no community. The entire island, almost zero orthodox culture. Trying to raise money to build a church. I have an idea that could earn millions or more. You’d like it. Water based.
Sorry, commenting as I'm watching... Vakhtanguri is slightly more serious. If you do vakhtanguri you are announcing to peolple that from this time on you are brothers. It's serious, don't take it lightly.
Just join the church and read the New Testament. This word salad just obscures the truth. It’s a very round about way of saying what the scriptures said. Except you feel the scripture when you take it in.
I have a somewhat... bizarre notion? Maybe it's normal--about capitalism and the virtual "money" economy. For many, investing in companies and benefitting from national/sector growth (like investing in ETF's) is something like a substitute for our bad social safety nets and the things socialism supposedly would address. Like someone who scrapes up a nice little pile of savings in a small town in Ohio can benefit from the national economy and NYSE, or even just a handful of companies that they prefer to buy stocks from--in a sense, there is potential for capitalism to distribute wealth gains to the poor through investing. But functionally, especially because you need to get out of a "paycheck to paycheck" cycle and build a little bit of money to get started, it just makes the already big economies bigger. It feels like we're almost there... but so far still. Maybe it's because the culture of wealth building just can't have the right spirit in the first place?
It’s the last part that makes the first part a dead end… I think. We get a hump when we do camel like things…. We become what we do and that means like a camel with a hump we can’t fit into the passageway, the way into the joy of eternity. I think…

Love you guys.
Fantastic conversation. Thank you, gentlemen.
Supra is actually a modern term, meaning tablecloth. The previous term was 'pur-marils' meaning bread-salt.
Old term was better.
Exactly!
Nice talk gentlemen
The water would make a culture that would be a cross between your brother’s orthodoxy, parkour, and a wild third thing.
Wonderful.
Just submitted my application to become a field worker for FTF.

I’m new Orthodox on big Island. I’m familiar with the Greek mission parish on Maui.
@@protestanttoorthodox3625 nice to meet you. Hit me up if ever over here or for any networking. I can’t believe no one has started a church here.
Hello embody
Not only did our God die, but we worship Him by eating Him every Sunday.
I thought carbon could form four bonds....? 🧐
