Why the one in my Bible.
LOL! Kolo, do you "reject" the Nicene Creed "and the blasphemous interpretation of Mary"?
When have the Orthodox accepted the filique of the Nicene Creed? When have the Orthodox accepted Mary as Co-Redepdix?
How many corrupt, homosexual, Jim Joneses, money manipulating, prostitute chasing, end of the world nuts do you have in the Protestant community to pretend to have the moral high ground form which to throw mud at others?
Um...not many. Most of them end up joining the Catholic Church.
They did to an extent, and the Protestants followed right along, and changed it one more time, so they are twice removed.
Well, there are many Protestants today who no longer follow the Reformed teaching, so I certainly can't fault that statement. They're nothing more than Catholic Lite.
The "firstborn of all creation"? Well, worship and venerate is not one and the same. Kolo and others who understand koine Greek have told you that on numerous occasions
I've been to the Holy Lands and seen how the Jews cringe whenever they past Orthodox and Catholic churches. You see, they seem to think there is a lot of idolatry in them. So while the Orthodox and Catholics may wish to go to great gyrations and SAY they are not REALLY bowing down to idols, that is not how others preceive it.
Protestants are a lot more liberal and all-inclusive then Catholics or especially the Orthodox. Protestant "churches" have openly homosexual "married" men and openly lesbian and "married" women as "bishops", or "ordained" ministers.
I don't know if I agree with this statement. I think this can be said for all churches. To their credit the Orthodox seem to draw the line.
How do you know that? That's the version chosen by the Catholic Church, which you reject as having no authority.
When have the Orthodox accepted the filique of the Nicene Creed?
Why should they accept an innovation when the Creed was written without the filioque, and specifically forbidding any changes in it?!? The filioque itself was inserted uncanonically 200 years later without any authority to do so, by a local church in Spain, and was steadfastly rejected by the popes for the next 500 years, all the way until the 11th century.
When have the Orthodox accepted Mary as Co-Redepdix?
They don't believe she is a redeemer of any kind by virtue of her essence or nature, but by the virtue of her giving birth to the Redeemer of the world, and that her prayers, more than ours, have a special resonance with God. I'd say that belief has been around for a long time, probably ever since they have the hymn "Most Holy Theotokos, save us." And the Orthodox don't change much their 1,700 year old liturgical hymns.

You don't read much, do you?

I got news for you: the Jews reject anyone who believes that man can be God! To them such a believer is an idolatrist. The Jews reject Protestant Christians with equal dsigust (just visit the anti-missionary sites) as they do all other Christians, including—and especially— the so-called "Jews for Jesus" messianic variety.
Whether they bow to idols or simply pray to the one the Jews see as man-god (and, as they say, a legend at that!), makes very little difference.

Well, draw up a list of Protestant assemblies with female and homosexual clergy and compare to Catholic or Orthodox Churches. Like I said, you don't seem to read much, HD.
