I don’t remember saying that it was “only” Catholics.
Cynical bear: Only the Catholics try to make presbuteros into priest.
here's something from www.dictionary.com for ya
Origin: before 900; Middle English prest ( e ), priest, Old English prēost, ultimately < Late Latin presbyter presbyter
And from the Oxford dictionary: Old English prēost, of Germanic origin; related to Dutch priester, German Priester, based on ecclesiastical Latin presbyter 'elder' (see presbyter)
and from webster's dictionary Origin of PRIEST
Middle English preist, from Old English prēost, ultimately from Late Latin presbyter — more at presbyter First Known Use: before 12th century
So, it's not just the "Catholic Church" who says priest is derived from presbuteros -- Cynical bear, this is just one of the wrong beliefs you have about orthodoxy, yes? yes
