>>"we do not believe and profess one and the same faith no matter how you sugar coat it."
The differences in formulations exist and even greater differences in liturgical practice exist. The differences in the underlying doctrine are surmountable, if they exist at all.<<
I am reading this and I am trying to understand it, but so far it is making no sense to me.
My initial thinking was that the Orthodox share the understanding of the Trinity with us: that the Father begets the Son, and from the Father through the Son the Holy Ghost proceeds. So, I thought, the issue is words and authority to change words, not substance.
I was later convinced that the Orthodox understanding of the Holy Trinity differs substantially. At this point I would like to get my questions about their understanding answered, because it seems to me manifestly wrong, and I am not having much luck.
