Oh, my goodness. You mean to tel me that the Roman Catholics passed over the Orthodox in favor of muslims and pagans.

Now that is reallly something. Even as a Baptist, I think that is very bad manners.

I just mentioned this to my son in law, ( he is R.C.) and he shook his head and said "SAD, REALLY SAD". Also, he said he could not imagine why they would slight other Christians in favor of muslims and PAGANS!.

See my #23. His is mere speculation, as well as mine. Also, see Kolokotronis' post #22.

Get over it. The Church did no such thing to fellow Christians, in fact, fellow Leaders of the Apostolic Church. The Orthodox were placed with the rest of the Priests of the Church, they were not placed with the non-Christians. They were also not 'passed over' for anything that Muslimes were to do. Do you really think there was a Muslime funeral ceremony done? Stop trying to create imagined differences between the two halves of the Church, we have enough issues to work out without those from outside the Apostolic Church trying to forment trouble. It is part of the other's plan to try and cause dissent in the Church of God.
