Orthodoxy forever-Православље заувек-Χριστος Aνεστη

In classical Christian usage, the term orthodox refers by to a set of doctrines which gained prominence in the 4th century AD. The Roman Emperor Constantine I initiated a series of ecumenical councils to try to standardize what was then a relatively disorganized religion. The most significant of these early debates was that between the Homoousian doctrine of Athanasius and Eustathius (Trinitarianism) and the Heteroousian doctrine of Arius and Eusebius (Arianism). The Homoousian doctrine gradually won out in the Roman Church and came to be referred to as orthodoxy in most Christian contexts, since this became the viewpoint of the majority (although, of course, many non-Trinitarian Christians still object to this terminology). Following the Great Schism in the Roman Church, both the Western and Eastern Churches continued to consider themselves uniquely orthodox and catholic. Over time the Western Church gradually identified itself more with the "Catholic" label and Westerners gradually associated the "Orthodox" label more with the Eastern Church (in some other languages the "Catholic" label is not necessarily identified with the Western Church). It is important to note that, in addition to the Eastern Orthodox Church, there also exists a separate Oriental Orthodox communion, as well as other smaller communions that are commonly associated with the "Orthodox" label.

The Eastern Orthodox Churches uses the original form of the Nicene Creed created at the First Council of Constantinople in 381, in contrast to the Roman Catholic church, which uses the Nicene creed with the addition of the phrase 'and the Son' (see Filioque clause). This change is one of many causes for the Great Schism formalized in 1054 by simultaneous proclamations of "Anathema" from the leadership of the Orthodox Churches in the East and the Bishop of Rome (Pope) in the West. This emphasis on the use of the
original "creed" is shared today by all Eastern Orthodox churches...

@MyBackUpChannel123 Yea , but also desturbing is that the money is going for pope....

[MyBackUpChannel123]

@siks6666 The topic is definitely a delicate one. Do you know that tuition at some private, Catholic universities in the US costs upward of $50,000 per year? Now, THAT is something which I find very disturbing.

[siks6666]

@MyBackUpChannel123 oh man i didnt understood u ok than , but in catolic churches there are mushines which can tell u history of that church and i find that very BAD....i paid entry in all churches in Italy

[MyBackUpChannel123]

@siks6666 Russia 2000 - 2003; Ukraine 2006; Georgia 2006 - 2008. I NEVER paid entrance to ANY Orthodox church in any of those countries, nor here in the USA. However, one could purchase the very same things in many Orthodox churches across the world, which you mentioned i.e. "postcards, suveniers etc."

I have NEVER been in a Catholic church which charged an entry fee, in all my years. When I lived in Milan (05') there was free entry, but one had to pay to go to the observatory at the top.

@MyBackUpChannel123 lol in what countries did u live ? where did u payed for enternce in church ? 

[MyBackUpChannel123]

@siks6666 I'm a former Catholic (now Orthodox), and I have never been asked to pay to enter into ANY Catholic church, including in Italy, where I lived for a period of six months in 2006. Sure, you can buy postcards, suveniers etc. in Catholic churches all over the world, but it's the same in many Orthodox churches - and I've lived in three Orthodox countries.

The ONLY church I've ever paid to enter into was St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin, Ireland - now Church of Ireland i.e. Anglican.

[siks6666]
