We just had a big thread about begoming, read that or post this in QTDDTOT because an explanation of a meme doesn't deserve a new thread. Also, lurk more and you wouldn't have to ask.

basically ortholarpers are 1% actual orthodox Christians, 99% teenage american protestants who think it'll make them cooler. they have very little grasp on theology and will use protestant arguments against Catholicism, while being oblivious that the same arguments can be made against Orthodoxy, as the two are almost identical theologically.

lol no
Orthoprot is only this board's meme anyway. No one will call Hank Hanegraaff or Fr Serafeim Rose orthoprots irl.

Even a cursory glance at their respective catechisms debunks this assuming you know even a little about theology.

From what I read a lot of tge diffrences are minor, with the only major one I know of is the debate on who is the real head of the church.
Jaxson Myers
Almost all the differences are based on mistranslations/definitions. The main difference is the energy/essence distinction, however most Catholic theologians these days accept that both traditions mean the same thing, and that the only difference is in defining energy as different to essense. Seeing as there is quite a lot of ecumenicism based on clearing up these definitions, in the future we'll probably see a closer relationship between the two communions
How not to be taken seriously

Ortholarpers are mostly Protestants who thinks that Orthodox are so much different from Catholics and hates Mary.
