They claim to be the original form of christianity, when Jesus's church on the rock was Roman Catholic

The hell do you know about this? lmao

For God's sakes, the first Pope was Peter

I did my under grad at saint leo

Touche

Where youre required to take like, 6 theology credits

Im not sure what that is in hours, but suffice is to say I wouldn't blindly practice Catholicism for the sake of checking the religious box

I find that Orthodoxy has attempted to stay metaphysically true and consistent, while Catholicism has been subject to international politics and Liberation Theology

And it's numbers have suffered because of it

Theres a reason why most of its practitioners are in unwashed Eastern Europe <:kek:590371888480387073>

The whole clergy shows up drunk off their ass

Its not very based

It's not like Catholics hate Orthos in the same manner as Protestants either.

There comes a point where you have to choose between Theology and Philosophy

Catholicism made that choice in the 1400s

And it florished

Flourished*

I don't think that choice has to be made, tbh.

it's just that most people cant

Honestly, I don't see any appeal in Eastern Orthodoxy

^ Right?

To each their own, but come on dude

It's a bunch of drunk excommunicated peasants making shit up as they go

Have you honestly looked into it? Or are you basing this off memes and internet culture?

All of my friends from Orthodox countries tell me how backwards it is

Have YOU? @Fitzydog

None have good words for it

My suggestion is attend both masses, maybe some adult education in each religion respectively

and from looking into it, it's very conservative and backwards

And decide which you prefer

very strict as well

.... Your opinion is literally less than worthless on this matter

(The Spaniard that is)

Go ahead, I'm not stopping you

As I was saying, go to both

I will

You're the one selling your soul to an institution

You're the one who's a progressive globalist cuck

RCIA is the catholic one, im not sure about EO

Yes

Thus, your opinion on matters of conservatism and traditionalism are worthless
