@@David-pf9xe There were 5 Ancient Patriarchates in 1054. Rome, Alexandria, Antioch, Jerusalem, & Constantinople. Rome is the one who introduced the Filioque (wasn’t part of the Creed before), Rome tried to claim authority over the rest of the Patriarchates (there is zero Church history evidence to show that they had this authority). So the 4 Apostolic Patriarchates (Constantinople, Antioch, Jerusalem, & Alexandria) all cut off ties with Rome and continued the same as they have for 1000 years, while Rome changed drastically.

[@gjshordja]

@@gravelroad1228 nice explanation but left few details out which makes not a small difference. The Patriarch of Rome were called from beginning “ the first among equals “. I know you will argue that still is equal like everybody else , but why the word first is there then ? If you read the bible you will see that in so many cases talks about the “ firstborn son “ . There were many brothers they are all equal to the father but the firstborn son was somewhat different from others. How different was he? Maybe you should go back and read the bible and find out yourself because there are some good examples. So my point is that in that kind of way “ the first among equals “ is understood, the word “first “ isn’t there for no reason. Peace ✌️

The Catholic Church has always been a church of education - virtually every eminent university from Oxford to Cambridge to the Sorbonne to Milan were established by the Catholic Church while I can’t think of a single orthodox university of note.

[@joanlynch5271]

I never knew that 😃

[@MarcusCato275]

Because ever since the Byzantine empire, there had been a separation between church and state in the sphere of education. The Byzantine empire kept classical education alive (philosophy and science) as well as political education (civil service training) which were overseen by the imperial state. Contrary to popular belief ancient Greek philosophy and philosophical schools didn't die out nor was philosophical learning banned but they were were simply forbidden to operate independently. The Byzantine government provided the funding for all secular education being of the view that the state should oversee secular affairs whilst the church oversaw religious instruction (training for the priesthood, doctrinal education etc). The church and state had two distinct roles in the education of the Byzantine people and both coexisted harmoniously. The orthodox church therefore never had to establish church run schools or universities as the state saw the importance of having a decently educated citizenry (particularly the civil service) to run the empire. For a theocratic empire like the Byzantines they were on whole very liberal (in our modern understanding concerning the separation of church and state) in their education system. And this translated into the orthodox church as many see it's role as one of religious and spiritual education and that the church has nothing to contribute in terms of science and classical liberal studies (eg. Philosophy, rhetoric, music, poetry, literature, natural sciences, arithmetic etc.). One of the greatest contention between the ecclesiastical involvement in education as in the western Catholic system and the pure religious education of the orthodox-byzantine system was the controversy between St Gregory of Palamas, an orthodox bishop and Barlaam, a monk educated in the western Catholic style who bought his scholastic (a combination between Greek philosophy and Christian theology) education to a theological debate concerning man's ability to know God (Hesychast controversy). St. Gregory argued that logic and reason are not sufficient tools for man to understand God and that only through the church and Christ (love of our fellow brothers and sisters, holy communion and prayerful silence and contemplation eg. Theoria) can man truly come to know God. The split in the thinking concerning man's epistemological ability to comprehend the Divine highlights the clear division between the western style education (mixing secular and religious education) and the eastern style. The Orthodox know their limits but remain confident in their faith, never having to justify it through secular knowledge concerning science and philosophy, their faith as being a gift from God and not a academic endeavour where one earns faith and have to prove it. This way of thinking truly makes the Orthodox faith a treasure, the pearl of great price; it's value is not in showy display (academic knowledge of its scholars and priests) but inner beauty (the humility and faith of its most humble and sinful faithful). And to me, as an Japanese orthodox Christian, this history is what makes the orthodox church and it's people admirable. The mentality of knowing ones place, knowing ones limits and acting out ones faith in a humble, serene and graceful manner which in contrast to the grandiose and pompous manner of the catholics and verbose and assertive (and try-hard) manner of the protestants are aspects which are most admirable about the orthodox.

The issue is not theological but national identity. The Orthodox Churches are strongly identified by their national and cultural identities - Greek, Bulgarian, Russian, Albanian, Ukrainian, Finnish, Romanian, etc. The ethnic identity does influence Catholicism as well, which accounts for the Catholic churches established according to ethnic identity, such as Irish, German, Polish, Italian, Lithuanian, Slovak, etc, but the groups intermingled and intermarried, and the churches were seen simply as Catholic. When Catholics step upon the land of Holy Mother Russia, it's seen as an incursion and a negation of the Russian, cultural slurry through which the faith developed and grew. Moreover, the rivalry between the Greeks and Latins was ferocious, and the paranoia of the Russians towards the Latin West is even seen explicitly in the grand opera, Boris Godunov. John Paul II was never going to be invited to Russia, because Poland was always seen as the major threat to culture and faith. Another issue is that there can be only one bishop within a canonical diocese. To place another bishop within the territory means that one if the bishops, a fortiori, is a usurper, according to the Orthodox. My family is Roman Catholic, Carpatho-Russian Orthodox and Ukrainian Byzantine Catholic. When I say Mass in my hometown, all three groups show up for the Mass, and all receive Communion, but this is the USA. Our respect for one another's faith and traditions runs deep. Sometimes I feel we should let the Russian and Greek Churches live in splendid isolation, but people have a right to their choice of faith expression. In the Orthodox tradition, the practice of caesaropapism went with the culture - ruling together emperor (tsar) and patriarch. That is what we see today regarding Putin and Kirill. Even though Rome has had the establishment of and the links with Catholic monarchs, the "Holy" Roman Empire, it was tempered by the Vatican's constant struggle for independence from the secular leaders in Church matters. Thus, the independent nation of Vatican City. Our embrace is many time warm and enthusiastic, such as among the Christians of the Middle East. Ending on an relevant and interesting note, when John Paul II made his biblical pilgrimage to the places of Scripture and the steps of St. Paul, he received a very rough and cold reception by the Greek Orthodox in Egypt and Sinai. Anticipating his visit to Athens, the lay synod of the Greek Orthodox Church in the US wrote the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople expressing their outrage at the treatment of the Pope by their church in Egypt. They spoke of the bonds of friendship and affection between Greeks and Latins in the US and their deep respect toward the Pope and insisted they would not tolerate such treatment of John Paul II in Athens or Istanbul. They even unambiguously threatened to withhold funds to both Athens and Constantinople if John Paul II were shown disrespect. A miracle occurred when the Pope, during the meeting in Athens with the Greek bishops, expressed in the most heartfelt way his sorrow for the affront and destruction wreaked upon Constantinople by the Latin Crusaders and deeply apologized for the sins of the Catholic Church toward its Greek brothers and sisters. The reaction was stunning and emotional - an historical move toward healing a deep wound. Moreover, Orthodox patriarchs have been given their own beautiful churches for their liturgical use in Rome.

All Christians worship the same God. I still don't understand what they were fighting about.

[@L.vegmadekid.V]

As a non demomational Christian but studying church history I've learned that they don't agree with on the matter of the Pope being infallible and the head of the church on earth which the Orthodox don't agree with as they believe Jesus is the head of the church both in heaven and earth and the other key disagreement is the "Filioque" the catholic believe the Holy Spirit proceeds from Jesus, but the orthodox believe it doesn't but they still both believe in the Trinity and the other difference is Catholics believe in purgatory and the Orthodox don't...they are both very similar and traditional and come from the same Church that Jesus made on earth but split around 1000ad and soon after the protestestans split from the Catholic church around 1500ad and many churches broke off and now we have many denominations who all believe they are right

That ain't baptism. Baptism is a Greek translation for immersion 18:28.

[@eDENjoetree]

The Early Christians and Apostles baptised via sprinkling of water, it’s perfectly valid. There is the Didache as proof.

Can anyone tell me why they are going to the Catholic Church and not the Orthodox Church? Thank you

[@josealejandro2649]

This is insane, to believe these are churches that preach the same message of salvation through Christ.

[@joylarson9040]

no they absolutely don't

The Patriarch of Moscow is who pushed Putin to invade Ukraine and refuse to call it an invasion or condemn Putin like religious and secular leaders around the globe have.Patriarch Kyril has also called the innocent Ukrainians defending their country from Russian aggression "Evil doers".The Russian Orthodox Church is not apostolic in origin and is just a department of the Russian regime who's Tsar or President is head of it.

@@richlopez5896 On the other hand, our Lady of La Salette prophecised that Rome will become the seat of Antichrist, and the vatican are now fully in control by the freemasons ,we also witnessed that they bow down to idol pachamama and many Catholic claimed that their Pope is an antipope and is apostate.

Kirill was a KGB agent code named Michailov and a founding member of the corrupt and Masonic World Council of Churches. He has a vast yacht, and many palaces. Putin built him another as he hates the sound of trains. 50 hats too.

@@richlopez5896 Ever wonder if you're wrong about that? What if the Russian people have an understanding of Christianity that was established in Greek speaking Constantinople; the center of Christianity until the Catholic Crusaders sacked Constantinople in like the 1200s?

Don't forget millions of Ukrainian Catholics who are in full communion with the Holy See, and their Patriarch Sviatoslav who is the global head and father of Ukrainian Catholics. He posts on You Tube frequently from Kyiv. God bless him and ALL Ukrainians.
