An orthoprot is a protestant, usually american, that convert to Orthodoxy and keeps many habits and sometimes even doctrines and theological understanding of his previous denomination.
For example an Orthodox arguing Catholics worship Mary because between our form of veneration for here and theirs there are subtle insignificant differences.
The same goes for orthodox giving an excessive importance to KJV english translation and similar things. Also an habit of reading the Fathers with the same attitude prot fundamentalists read the Bible.
Orthoprot
I can say exactly the same thing about you.
Orthodox demands uniformity of every single difference of the west, including monastic orders.
If you expect we give up 1000 years of saints and pretend they were under prelest you can keep your provincial church separated for another 20000 years
Catholism also has eastern rite.
I didn't comment on that because i don't know what are the differences regarding the Catholic approach to the Theotokos. I've only read the it's somewhat different to us but i don't know any details.
We didn't start the ecumenical movement and we aren't the ones pushing things. Every Orthodox know that our theological gap is huge, unlike Catholics who usually believe that we are practically the same thing except we don't have Francis.
Since this is another Catholic vs Orthodox thread, how do Catholic anons respond to the argument that, since Peter also founded the Church of Antioch, the Bishop of Antioch should have the same power as the Pope?
Catholicism and Anglicanism are both having some major internal disturbances.
Throughout Acts we see the apostles move around to escape death, so it follows that Peter chose to die in Rome.
mass attendance among orthos is not any higher than among Catholics lmao
In the chase of Catholicism these tribulations were predicted at La Salette, Fatima and other messages.
If only it makes my faith stronger to see it coming true.
"Rome will lose the Faith and become the seat of the Antichrist" it was said at La Salette.
Just like Paul choose to die in Rome also?
