However, I am not sure how that doctrine conflicts with Sola Scriptura or Solus Christus. I certainly don't see a contradiction. And I'm not sure what you mean by verbum factum est, since that seems to translate to "Word of the". Perhaps you meant verbum caro hic factum est, "the Word was made flesh"?

You're right, I should have included "caro" to make more sense, but "verbum factum est" is a valid participle and still has a logical translation: the Word having been brought forth. My point is that everything follows logically from the incarnation not scripture per se which is the word of God but not the Word of God. Sola scriptura was the doctrine of the Arians, whilst the orthodox appealed to Christ in the Church as do the Ecumenical Councils. Consider, for example, how the Council of Jerusalem does not appeal to scripture per se when it makes its decisions, but to God and the Holy Spirit (my Protestant pastor even strangely argued that the Council was against scripture even though it's...in scripture). All subsequent Councils do the same.
I'm not sure I have a problem with Solus Christus in general, it just seems a bit reductionist to say when Christ, in fact, reigns through men and, by extension, through the Church made up of his disciples through all time. I suppose a theologian would say we never can talk about Christ by himself because Christ is always within others and within the Church.

How do I do that though? How do I contact them? I sent a mail to the local temple in my city, but did not get a response... I don't know what to do and how to do that... I am currently a Jehovah's Witness...

While I am not Orthodox myself, here's my suggested advice: Study why you want to change from JW to Orthodox. If you're settled that changing is a good thing, then go to your local Orthodox church and speak to the priest one on one. See how worship is conducted in the church, if you could get used to that, can you communicate with the other people there, etc. There are myriad fundamental doctrinal and dogmatic differences between JW and the Orthodox, and while I firmly believe that it would be a good change, it's something that you yourself have to decide. So find your local EO church, speak to the priest about your convictions and let him lead you from that point on. He'll tell you how to be received into the Orthodox Church, when you can complete the sacraments of initiation, etc. And above all, pray and discern if this is right for you, without any pressure or time constraint.

Lastly, I may be wrong, but I believe The Gallant Old Republic is Orthodox? If so, you may wish to telegram him/her with your questions.

While covid, protests, and riots rock the nation, the U.S. House busied itself today with an unconstitutional bill to pack the U.S. Senate.

The Douglass Commonwealth, as it would be called, would be 4% as large as the next smallest state. It would be 15% as populous as the median state. The federal government would shower it with more than four times as many funds as any other state and more than seven times as many funds as the average state.

And did I mention that it would violate the Constitution? A fact that everyone explicitly or implicitly acknowledged as recently as the 1980s:

The biggest reason is the doctrinal explanation of leadership. I agree with the orthodox about the church being the people with equal leaders and more apostolic approach, even though I do not agree with many of decisions of the church in the past, but neither do I agree with decisions of JWs from the past.

I also believe that religion is (quoting an orthodox priest) "Organisation made by us for us to preserve faith" and I happen to not agree in the magical view of JWs regarding prophecy, but rather the symbolical such as in the Orthodox church. Although JWs happen to slowly change the magical view to the symbolical, sometimes I just don't agree with their interpretation of symbolism, since I have read a lot of Jewish theological philosophy, which corresponds more with the orthodox than JWs.

The use of name Jehovah is in my opinion not actually anything making JWs better, since Orthodox can and do use it, just not commonly and so do most churches. Doing it personally, or using the more eastern version of it which I think is more proper, doesn't make a big difference. Then there is the elephant in the room... Trinity and John chapter 1. It is complicated and it is a cause in a lot of schisms and protestant uprisings in the church making different churches see trinity differently or adopt arianism, but I have found a very inteligent and wise priest in orthodoxy who said "arguing about trinity is like arguing about the morality of sex while being three. We know little about the nature of God and our words lack the power to describe it properly, which means all can be wrong and all can be right at the same time. What's more important is accepting the greatness of God without trying to tear it down in the name of winning an argument".

Iconography is another elephant in the room. I myself learned a bit about it in orthodoxy and I learned that there is tons of conrtroversy around it. The church doesn't accept worhip towards them and uses them for educational purposes with high restrictions on them and in what way they can be used. Prayer to them is officially heretical, same with exaltation of them, as only God may be exalted and not a piece of paper with paint on it, but there have been two movements in the past that starteg a huge controversy and ended in an anathema. One movement called Bogomisilm (gnostic movement) decided that God can be channeled through anything, thus worship of objects is not idolatry if the correct God is worshipped and Iconoclasm which said the opposite, that all icons must be destroyed in order to stop idolatry.

To this day Orthodox church calls Icons depictions of the holy figures "educational" and not vessels for worship, which makes them no different than illustrations of heavens or Jesus in Watchtowers. The difference being that Orthodox use very old styles for them and have more respect toward them, which does make sense since they are usually ancient or at least medieval artifacts.

Also it's hard to argue that a translation of The Bible is better than original Aramaic, Greek or Hebrew, which are used in orthodoxy to this day, while translations are nonetheless common and accepted.

Be persistent if your conscience is determined. I tried to contact a couple of Catholic churches in my day and heard nothing, but, to paraphrase a priest, devils can be good at jamming communications if they so choose. Find a way to attend to get a taste of what it's really like. Perhaps attend a few times until you're comfortable. Then try to approach someone in the congregation or else the priest himself and tell them you're interested. There's a good chance they will approach you before then (once I was practically tackled at the door of a small fringe schismatic Anglican church eager to get a new member and kindly questioned by the priest and multiple lay members). I took the leap after consciously attending a Catholic school, attending mass almost daily, and approaching one of the priests at lunch. That was after a few years of reading church history and about 'high church' stuff which had already made up my mind, going to mass just confirmed that this was indeed what I had been looking for.
Anecdote: humorously the pew Missal were so complex and hard to follow along with I just had to listen. I memorized all the responses in less than a month, but when I saw them in print afterwards I kept having to make slight corrections since my hearing stinks sometimes.

Thanks for the help. BTW we've got a new poll that continues the last one. Some people wanted US election poll, but the election polls have a queue. Not to mention I can't legally make political commentary of any kind during electoral silence.

Edit: I wrote Mazdanism instead of Mazdan... My bad...

WATCH crowd of protesters shout down Catholic priest trying to defend statue of Saint Louis in Missouri

Angry protesters in St. Louis, Missouri shouted down a young Catholic priest who tried to defend a statue of the city’s namesake. The activists sought to destroy the monument in a wave of statue-toppling sweeping the US.
Priest Stephen Schumacher was filmed in Forest Park defending an equestrian statue of French King Louis IX (1226-1270), the city’s namesake, who was canonized by the Catholic Church.

“Saint Louis was a man who willed to use his kingship to do good for his people,” Schumacher said through a loudspeaker to a crowd of angry protesters demanding to have the statue taken down. He insisted that the king had “nothing to do with Africans,” since during the Crusades he fought against Muslim Arabs, who themselves conquered North Africa centuries prior to that.

Schumacher also asked the crowd to learn more about Louis IX by visiting the local cathedral. One man responded, saying: “Eventually, we’re taking that [down] too, though.”

This whole thing of taking down statues is becoming an absurdity. I doubt Fr. Schumacher will get through to the protesters, given how history is irrelevant to them when it contradicts their narrative, but he is none the less brave and an example to follow.

PeePeePooPooCaCa’s Inter Regional Stock Market

by Peepeepoopoocaca

CELEBRATING 1000 READS!

brief overview

This stock market will be for companies from nations in the Labyrinth’s embassy regions to expand and make more money. Through the stock market, values will determine investments and due to the wide accessibility of this stock market, companies are guaranteed to make at least some sort of profit. The number besides the company is it’s value in the stock market, one point is equal to 1 million Jilars. The money companies earn will not come from the state, instead, they will come from the revenue made from their products, locations, or to put it simply, from the client. The + or - sign besides the companies indicate whether the company’s value has risen or fallen since last week’s report. The number besides the + or - signs indicates by exactly how much it rose or fell.

rewards

In addition, every company on the stock market will get a weekly pay of 100 million Jilars. 85% of the stock market’s profits will go to the companies while 15% will go to PeePeePooPooCaCa. The nation with the largest company in each sector of the market receives a trading card, nations are limited to one card. The card is uncommon if the sector has less than five different nations, rare if it has more than five but less than ten, and epic/legendary if the sector has more than 10 nations.

karma points

Every investment by a nation into a company that doesn’t belong to them will be rewarded with karma points. The nation receives 1k for an investment lower than 500 million dollars, 2k for an investment between 500 million and 999,999,999, and 3k for an investment above 1 billion. Karma points are transferred to stock points and are added onto the nation’s companies’ values.

power ups

Nations can also buy power ups to boost companies’ values. There shall be four original power ups, but more can be added by other nations if Peepeepoopoocaca approves of them. The creator of a new power up can use it for free the first time he or she wants it. Otherwise, all nations wishing to buy a power up should pay its fee using the nation’s companies’ stock points. The nation does not have a bought power up anymore if he or she don’t pay the power up’s renewal fee in time, or Peepeepoopoocaca decides to terminate the nation’s power up privilege. All power ups shall be bought in the shop down below.

shares

In addition to the karma points system, there will also be another type of external investment. They’re called shares, which essentially means that the company you invest in has to repay you in the form of a dividend. A dividend is calculated using a percentage system, which means that a nation’s share is also it’s dividend. For example, if a nation holds a 20% share of a company, then the company being invested in needs to give the shareholder 20% of weekly profits. So if that company makes 10k points in a week, 2k go to the shareholder. Dividends and shares investments are overall pretty good as they don’t have to be renewed as frequently as karma investments, but they require more negotiation, as the shareholder nation and company representative nation both need to agree on the terms of the investment. The shareholder now possesses a share in said company, and they can sell shares whenever they feel they don’t need said share anymore, for example, when a company’s doing poorly. Shares that are sold on the market are registered as initial public offerings, or IPOs. The number in brackets besides the listed shares down below is the current revenue being made by that company’s share, which is the same as the share price. The whole point of buying and seeking shares is to buy at low prices, and sell at high prices whenever the stockholder honks it’s right.

banks

There will be banks stationed across PPPPCC and elsewhere that will help to fund and monetarily aid the companies in the stock market. A good way to do this will be through loans, which will be eventually paid back by interest. To buy a loan, first choose a bank in which you will form a partnership with and buy loans from them in the future. This bank is now called your ‘partnership bank’. Now, specify the amount of money that will be required to fund the buyer’s project(s), and then, you’re expected to pay back a certain amount of interest within a certain time span. One credit point is equal to 100 stock points and vice versa. On top of this, companies will be able to deposit any money (aka stock points) they currently posses to the bank, and withdraw it whenever they please. As a side note, you’re allowed to change your partnership bank whenever you want, but you have to make an agreement with both banks.

This stock market’s plan is to give companies a fair chance and open up in new lands with new markets and new opportunities. This will never be a stock market established due to corporate greed. We shall never deny a guest, even the most ridiculous request.

For a place to discuss the stock market, ask questions, roleplay scenarios with your companies, and arrange further deals, create an alternate account or submit Embassy requests and join the Inter regional stock market region.

In other news, Princeton University is removing Woodrow Wilson.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/27/us/woodrow-wilson-princeton-university-trnd/index.html

I'm not a big fan of Wilson, but I don't think he should be removed either. He was an accomplished man -- a political scientist, a university president, a governor, and U.S. president -- and, on the whole, his racism is a comparatively small part of his legacy. It should be used as a teaching tool about human imperfection rather than as a rationale for destroying Wilson altogether, good parts and bad.

Now that I am an official citizen of RtL, are there any other citizens (at least two) who would be interested in forming a new party? I think the current offering of parties leaves an opening for a non-socialist, non-secular party to move in and meet an unmet need.

This new party would mount a pro-social reform, pro-worker, pro-religion, pro-monarchy, pro-protectionist platform.

I'm flattered.
