Thank you for the link. The more I read about the Orthodox Church, the more I like it. The EO, I believe, has stayed a lot more faithful to the word than the “you-know-whos”. :o)

The EO, I believe, has stayed a lot more faithful to the word than the you-know-whos. :o) I thought you would, boatbums, especially because the first reference I gave is written (strangely enough) in a rather Protestant style, but it summarizes the significant and important difference between English "tradition" and Greek paradosis quite well and also enumerates what elements constitute the Holy Tradition.
