[quote name='Resurrexi' post='1928626' date='Jul 22 2009, 05:19 PM']Oh, cool. What monastery are you entering?[/quote]

I'm not... I was with the PCPA in Alabama for two and a half years, but I left last month. I meant that I had been thinking about April 2nd for my first profession while I was still in the monastery. (It was originally November 1st of this year, but was postponed, so I was going to have to pick a new day, and was thinking April 2nd, possibly.) But, I left, so it doesn't really matter anymore. I just thought it was odd that that day had so many things tied in with it.

[quote name='Resurrexi' post='1927686' date='Jul 22 2009, 12:29 AM']The patron saint of Phatmass is St. Michael the Archangel.

Thanks for voting, everyone![/quote]

Unofficially. No offense but I'm pretty sure we don't get to decide that unless dUST authorized us too and I'm pretty sure dUST didn't.

While I like St. Michael the Archangel, I think a better patron saint would be someone who was .....

involved with spreading the faith....:think:

Yes, this is obviously unofficial. dUSt (or even a moderator) would have to confirm that St. Michael is the patron of Phatmass for him to be the official patron.

:idontknow:

I myself voted for St. Thomas Aquinas, but that was not whom the people of Phatmass chose.

I like St. Isadore of Seville; however, that is not the Saint whom the members of Phatmass chose as the Phatmass patron.

And this is a democracy since when exactly?

The poll is what decides who the informal patron of Phatmass is

The greatest number of Phatmassers voted for St. Michael to be the informal patron.

If St. Isadore gets more votes than anyone else, then he will become the informal patron.

Make a poll and get the majority of Phatmassers to choose St. Joan, then!

Rex man I dont know if you know this or not but dUSt has the ultimate say on this, and dUSt can only make a decision on this. Did I mention that dUSt can only make the decision on this? Because dUSt can on only make the decision on this. He wouldn't want anyone to have fun on the board on anything. That would be crazy.

In other news... henceforth Phatmass will be officially know as KnightofChrist's and MIkolbe's BFF <3 <3 <3 Party Palace.

s'up!

Traditionally, Eastern icons were hand-painted. One monk would take the original, and paint a copy. Then another monk would paint a copy of that copy, etc. That is why you will see many Eastern icons that are very similar to but at the same time different from other icons of the same saint or mystery.




That's quite understandable. :)[/quote]
AHEM!! Written :mellow: Not painted.
