You say “vague” i say “succinct”.

I don’t need you to teach me anything (and you haven’t) and the Orthodox don’t need you to speak for them.

Toe-MAY-toe, toe-MAH-toe? Your "succinctness" was not even vaguely concise and omitted the very MAJOR dogmas that continues - after a thousand years - to separate them. It is futile to think they will ever come over to Rome's view of the faith.

As for your need for further education WRT the Orthodox faith, it was apparent that, whatever you say you know about them, you DID need a better resource from which to learn. The Eastern Orthodox caucus on the Religion Forum is seldom heard from, I just didn't want others reading your words to come away thinking what you spouted was the actual truth.
