Most folks think that Orthodoxy is just the form of Roman Catholicism that is practiced is certain foreign lands.

Guilty sir!

That's what I thought until I started to attend Liturgy and study and became a catechumen.

This is interesting, because way back at the beginning of The Neverending Story a discussion was going on about the "Orthodox" and I commented that I did not know the difference, and people jumped on me like a duck on a june bug. Acted like I was some kind of dummy. I never asked again:)
