Before Rome decided to worship lucifer

Almost as if there had always been a pope

the headquarters have always been in heaven

if they had been on earth it would have been on Jerusalem or smth

you right

You mean the same pope who was primus inter pares among the patriarchs?

>"primus inter pares"

Yes, the same who was equally not equal

Mental gymnastics

Their church isn't a hospital, but a mental gymnasium

Said the man talking about the unequal equals

Get off the trampoline

Get off drugs

get off my lawn
Gamers rise down

@Mozalbete ⳩ The official formal name of the Orthodox Church is actually the Orthodox Catholic Church

"The feast of soy"

If we go full formal it's Eastern Orthodox Catholic Church. ❤

no

eastern is not in the official title

Christ's ancient church isn't confined to the East

Or at least shouldn't be

It's just an unfortunate reality of the modern world that the most orthodox church was only able to thrive in one corner of the world

not true

It just got wiped out of areas

thanks to apostasy

Well, a bunch of the church east of Pakistan went with Nestorius back in the day...

Exactly, apostasy

EO is fairly confined to it's places

Then again, the OO are even more confined

Practically non-existent outside Africa and Syria

what is: OCA, OCJ, ROCOR, patrisrchate of Alexandria's massive missionary effort

Practicing EO in the US is a lot smaller than membership and even then, they are like .5%

yeah, growing though
America is a pretty big place

In Western Europe, the practicing EO % is even smaller than US proportional to membership

The areas outside East Europe and Middle-East really have very very few EO

Does EO have missions in Africa? That's where they can grow the most usually

Prots do tons of missions down their b/c tons convert

The EO have a good amount of missions there
