απλως λέω ότι το θαυμα από μόνο του δεν αποδεικνυει την αγιοτητα ουδενός .stratos έγραψε:αχ βρε misha
ολα τα ξερεις
μεχρι και αυτο αν ηταν θαυμα η οχι
οτι δεν ειναι της αρεσκειας σου,οποιος μοναχος δεν ειναι αξιος για εσενα,οτι δεν ειναι προσωπικη σου επιλογη ειναι σκαρτο η χρειαζεται ερευνα για να δουμε αν ειναι ψευτικο..
και απο την αλλη να μου μιλας σοβαρα για τους τυμπανιαιους
ε δεν πιανεσαι πουθενα τελικα:!:
ουτε δικαιολογει η περιπτωση ενος θαυματος την εκπτωση βίου, την εκκοσμικευση και την περιφρόνηση στην ασκητική παράδοση των αγίων μας.

CANCER CASE HISTORIES

The most popular anticancer diet, as the American Cancer Society notes on its Internet site, is the macrobiotic diet. The following case histories are drawn from publications of the East West Foundation, the Kushi Foundation, and One Peaceful World.
