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)

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.

To my own embarassment and shame, they have. I am doing what I can to rectify that.
