I find it comedic when EO or RCC talk about the 10 Gajillion prot denoms, when, in reality, a lot of supposedly different denoms are way closer to each other than various traditions and/or schools or RCC and EO

On the surface level, yeah

Like Mollinists and Thomists are so different, they would certainly be different prot denoms technically

But there are very minute differences that truly matter theologically that cause proper schism

Such as two words

Filioque

Ruined Christendom

There is so much more than that

Filioque caused postmodernism

not even joking

Filioque is only one piece of the puzzle

The schism had so many other things that caused it

Politics aside

I need to write something about that but I need to do a fuckton more research in order to think I have anything authoritative to say about it

And energy-essence debate

That is, in conformity with Orthodoxy

There's all sorts of metaphysical ideas roaming around in my head that may not be agreeable with the patristic perspective

If the EO has unity, then there are like 5 prot denoms in total

And then a huge group of apostates

The differences b/w groups like ELCA and PCUSA are large, but both "churches" could care less about theology. They just want to do whatever the world wants them to do.

They could easily merge

Be one big apostate body

Episcopals are apostates

NO GOOD CONVERSATIONS IN THE FILTHPIT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

"Filioque caused postmodernism" That can remain here

>Filioque caused postmodernism

Leavened bread caused postmodernism

You can't even make a theological argument for that

That's the point

or a geographical one

leavened does sound suspiciously like (((levi)))

Wokest take

Leavened bread = soft mushy like actual flesh
unleavened bread = lmao Christ's flesh is a disc

Fite fite fite

Risen Christ, risen bread

Also both elements = necessary

Unleavened bread=the required bread for passover
Passover bread=the bread Our Lord offered when He said 'this is my body'

>wanting to be true to the Passover but taking away the wine from laiety for centuries
