aren't they in communion w/ Rome?

Copts are just a plot to subvert **BLACK WAKANDAN SUPREMACY**

And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

>loses Constantinople
>thinks is legitimate Church

OOF

Orthowned

Yall love taking that one verse out of context to justify all the heretical bs lmao

y'all think correcting Peter is enough to claim he has no legitimacy lmao

Constantinople wouldn't have fallen if the Catholics hadn't backstabbed them.

No Peter was a great apostle and bishop

But he had the same status as the rest of the apostles

yes indeed, but he was first amongst equals

Which is why James presided at the council

Yes

*EQUALS*

and you also forget how much the orthodox succd the byzantine emperor

yeah, you guys had been looking for excuses to stop listening to Rome though

The Church and State acted in concert under the Byzantine emperors, correct.

At one point the Orthodox faith was more of the state-controlled religion of the East

Unlike Rome that pretty much every King kneeled to

Rome was only 1/5 of the Patriarchates, it didnt have any special powers

Dude

Mate, it was you guys that broke off

Yeah ok we'll pretend Charlemagne didnt demand coronation lmao

@Jay Dubya yet having more screen time in the new testament

The Roman patriarchy has always been the prime one

double mind you

Every Saint prior to the schism knew this

The first amongst equals was the title, equals being the operative word. Not superior, equal.

The pope agreed to crown Charlemagne because his family had proved to be God's tools, stopping the Muslims at Tours and such

I refuse to watch because I already know the answer.

1v4, yes it was totally us who broke off lmao

unironically yes

mainly because 4/5 Sees were connected to Byzantium

mfw eastern liturgies cool now with Supreme Pontiff, whos reuniting who now

I respect you lads a lot, but being blind to history is just a meme

"Hey we never agreed to add the filioque to the Creed, you cant just do that it violates the canons"

"Fuck yall I do what I want, I'm the pope"

And so schism happened.

oversimplifying

Is it though?
