This in no way supports what you said Nikas. I can’t believe you would claim it does.

You said: “Anyone reading this will now see my evidence and judge accordingly that those making the link to the Moravian people’s Christian origins are justified to include their Greek Christian roots (by Greek I mean eastern Roman Greek rite - which is labeled “orthodox” these days by laymen.”

You were claiming there was an “eastern Roman Greek rite”. There wasn’t. A book by Millar which is about the BYZANTINE Empire, (i.e. what was left of the Roman empire in the East, then dominated by Greek culture) has nothing to do with the names of the rites of the Church then or now.

I can’t believe the lengths you go to and yet you end up empty handed.
