      As a Russian Orthodox Christian, I believe that we're all children of our Lord. Even Muslims, gays and other people who break God's commandments. We can pray for all of us. And wish for each one to repent of their sins and come to the Lord.
      And I don't think it's a sin to visit a Catholic church and worship there.

    This is so interesting. I’m Roman Catholic and I’ve always felt like we were very traditional and conservative. I had no idea that the Orthodox Church was even more so. It seems like there are pretty significant differences that I never realized.

      I don't think that part of this video was very well presented. There are people who call themselves Catholic, but have even been to an extent excommunicated or barred from receiving Holy Communion, such as some politicians who push anti-Christian things, and are called not real Catholics. To refer to a survey of people who call themselves Catholic and then give an answer on a social or political issue, isn't really comparing two religions. What does the Bible say about it? What does the Pope say? What are the teachings of the two churches? And if the video is going to mention a current fad, why not give more of a history, how only in very very very recent years has public opinion swayed a bit, at the moment, to support gay marriage, etc. Perhaps someone will say yes they support it, but some years ago they didn't, and their parents and grandparents don't, who are of the same religion. To look at a snapshot of public opinion (and what self identifying Catholics were surveyed? Just those in the US?) and tell us about the differences between Catholic and Orthodox, in my opinion is not really explaining the differences between the two. It would be like highlighting when someone sins, or is in error, and saying that defines their beliefs. No, that is a sin or an error according to their belief system or their religion.

      Orthodoxism prays to the God as main diety, orthodoxism allows divorces if the spose is alchoolic, violent, or sociopathic, orhodoxism allows marriage withing the church of an orthodox and another type of christian, without reconversion as it is believed that baptizing a follower of christ twice, is a heresy. And we don't pay a monthly tax to be part of the church. You pay a gift when you baprize a child, when you get married and when somebody dies, but not monthly, and nobody ex communicates you if you haven't went to the church for a year. So i don't think that will happen too soon.

      @@zdvxr fair enough, in matters of orthodoxy and catholics it is a point of contention. It has to be said that the orthodox do acknowledge papal primacy. Or used to. The contention was as to what extent, Papal Supremacy or first among equals. After the split, they gave the first among equals to the patriarch of Constantinople (which at the time was the capital of the Roman Empire)
      Early Christianity did recognize the importance of the bishop of rome as the arbiter when it comes to theological disputes. Way before Christianity was even legal under the empire. Which is why most orthodox Christian beliefs, like the Hypostatic Union and Mary being Theotokos was made under the guidance of the councils and the Pope.

Example: All of those tv evangelists, those are protestants and they are literally become multi millionaires from doing. It is not just different beliefs. We’re not talking about mythological beings here. Well that is if you actually believe that Jesus is the son of God. My point is that the early church was founded on what Jesus said and Protestantism started in the 16th century so how can the Protestant church honestly say that what they believe in is the real thing when their church started around 1500 years after Jesus died? @Morgan Mcglasson if you’re really interested look into the Orthodox Church.

Eastern Orthodox Christianity’s cross has three lines the normal one, right above the normal one is a much smaller line, and a long diagonal line at the bottom. That is supposed to represent The Holy Trinity. Look up Eastern Orthodox cross to see it.
    Edit: I forgot to mention that the middle one represents the son because Jesus’s arms were hanging there, the top the father because God rules heaven, and finally the bottom represents the Holy Spirit because it roams Earth.

    I'm a Catholic and among the more traditional variety. We should follow the ancient tradition of our church during Lent and also fast for 40 days as our Orthodox brethren do. I attempted this for Lent this year, and though I failed a couple of times, it is truly something which enriches the soul. We should also follow the tradition of fasting on all Wednesdays and Fridays. I'm Scottish and in Scottish Gaelic, the names of three days of the week relate to this old fasting tradition - Wednesday is DiCiadain, "day of the first fast", Thursday is DiarDaoin, "day between the fasts", and Friday is DihAoine, "day of the fast".

The Nicene Creed read "who proceeds from the father, who together with the father and son is worshipped and glorified." In fact, even the Pope agreed with this and said "this can never be changed," until another pope a couple decades later decided it could.

    Major points missing about the Orthodox church: The importance of Saints and the use of icons. Also, you should have mentioned the strong focus on tradition and living like the Bible says, instead of just learning the Bible in detail. Lastly, you should have mentioned that the Greeks use the original new testament text, while the rest use translated versions.

I am Eastern Orthodox, but my church serves the Western Rite Mass. This is really important to us because of our western culture, and yet our belief in Orthodox faith. We are a very small minority but growing rapidly and I obviously wouldn't expect that to be mentioned in this video. However, many people believe that to become Orthodox means giving up all western culture and becoming Eastern which is not true due to the Western Rite.

    Just to clarify: Papal Infallibilty in the Catholic Church only applies to When the Pope is speaking on matters of faith and morals, as well as when he has specifically stated that he is speaking "ex cathedra" (from the chair of Peter). This is very uncommon, and rarely happens during the time most Popes are in power. In short, video missed a pretty key detail.
    Also I think it is important to note that Catholics do actually fast during Lent, it just happens to be less .. how do I put this.. intense? than Orthodox fasting.

      Funny you should mention that. In the old days, Pepsi's owner realized he was losing out to Coke; and, asked them to buy him out. Coke said 'why should we do that? We're #1! Take a hike!' Years later, 70's or 80's I think, Pepsi hired a genius marketing manager to market Pepsi to the younger, hipper, crowd. Pepsi is now a close 2nd to Coke. Each around 50% of their market share! Oops! And, Coke is the most recognized brand on earth!

    Correction: It's not "Arch Bishop of Moscow", it's the "Patriarch of Moscow". Also regarding Easter: while your explanation regarding Gregorian and Julian calendars are correct in the context of the New Calendar and Old Calendar (14 days difference), the Easter is being calculated based on the Moon calendar and Jewish Easter. Orthodox do take into account the Jewish Easter calendar, and the Orthodox Easter must happen after the Jewish Easter. The Catholic Easter doesn't take into account the Jewish Easter. So there are some years when Orthodox Easter overlaps with the Catholic Easter, so again this is nothing to do with the Gregorian or Julian Calendar. The Christmas, however, between Catholic and Orthodox is always 14 days apart because of the Gregorian (new) and Julian (old) Calendars. Also Orthodox receive the Holy Fire, Which happens on the Saturday of Orthodox Easter in Jerusalem.

    The main differences between Orthodox Christianity and Roman Catholicism. the main things which keep our religions separate are:
    Papal Supremacy, Papal Infallibility, The Filioque, Absolute Divine Simplicity, Created Grace Doctrine, natural theology, scholasticism, Original sin, sacred heart doctrine, Immaculate conception, Purgatory, Merits/Indulgences, evolution of Dogma,imaginative prayer, "beatific vision" etc
    Then the Forced Celibacy of Priests, The use of Unleavened Bread in the Eucharist, The Adoption and change of the Christian calendar, The use of Renaissance statues, Pews, Child Communion, improper non immersion baptism, Cardinals, and differences in liturgical practices (Alter tables, Iconostasis, priest positioning etc)
    all of those things, we say the Western Church adopted and innovated and became heretical when they adopted these things.
    And we say that in the early church NONE of these things existed, there is no evidence of these things.
    No examples of Papal Infallibility, No examples of merits/indulgences, and no examples of unleavened wafer bread, and such.
    In fact in the west, In Rome. It looked a lot similar to how we Orthodox exist today. Our priests can get married, we use Icons and not statues, we use the old calendar etc
    Orthodoxy Vs Roman Catholicism:
    Energy Essence Distinction vs Absolute Divine Simplicity
    Ancestral Sin vs Original Sin
    Non Filioque Trinity vs Filioque Trinity
    Patriarchy vs Papacy
    Revealed Theology vs Natural Theology
    Hesychasm Vs Scholasticism
    Theosis vs Sanctification
    Married Priest vs Celibate Priests
    Infant Communion Vs Non Infant Communion
    Iconography vs Statues
    Full Immersion Baptism vs Sprinkle Baptism
    One Baptism vs Confirmation Baptism
    Leavened Communion Bread vs Unleavened Communion bread
    Julian Calendar vs Pope Gregory's Calendar
    We are not the same Religion, we do not have the same faith, and anyone who looks into either religions genuinely will see how different we are.

      I think there is no turning back. Many years have passed in which the Catholic Church has changed dramatically. Numerous smaller churches have separated from it and formed. What does unification mean here? Union of whom? We can feel close as Christians, but a union between different churches seems to me to be possible only by the power of God. For Orthodox Christians, this is absolutely impossible and is not on the agenda at all. For the Orthodox Church, all other Christian denominations are considered heresy, even the Roman Catholic. These are things that no bishop or patriarch can change, no matter how much they want to. The Orthodox Church has a rule according to which a priest or bishop is not allowed to serve together with a priest or bishop of another denomination. Otherwise, they will be deposed, that is, they will be deprived of the right to be priests or bishops. That is why, when the Pope goes to Constantinople, he simply attends, but is not allowed to participate in the service. Many Patriarchs of Constantinople have tried to make the union happen, but the people, which is the defacto Church of Christ, will not allow it, because of the deep differences. Moreover, there is one place that is not very well known to Christians outside the Orthodox world. It is called the Holy Mount Athos. The words and instructions of the elders there are taken with extreme importance by the heads of the Orthodox Church, and they are categorically against the unification. P.S. Today, the Orthodox Church celebrates the Transfiguration of the Lord. Stay healthy and be blessed!❤

      @@slft47 We celebrate events of the life of our Lord Jesus Christ, not man made events. As for the Sunday service: Sunday is Κυριακή in Greek, which means day of the Lord, because it’s the day that our Lord resurrected. The Sabbath was fulfilled by the Lord so we are not bound by it anymore. We are not judaizers.

    Can you cover the difference between eastern orthodoxy and oriental orthodoxy? I know there's supposed to be one, but I've always wondered how big it is.

    • @marcusaustralius2416
      @marcusaustralius2416 Год назад +11

      The difference lies in Christology and a rejection of the Fourth Ecumenical Council
      For the Orthodox, we see Christ as having two natures, being both Man and God in one Person (hypostasis)
      For the Oriental Orthodox, they see Christ as having one single nature that is at the same time both fully Man and fully God, and thus reject the Fourth Ecumenical Council which established the Orthodox and Latin dogma of dyophysitism
      Overall the differences may seem minor to an outsider but to someone within the faith, it's critical as the fundamentals determine the chains of logic which lead to major theological divergences over hundreds, if not thousands, of years

    3:30 the infallibility of the pope is only when there is a disagreement, meaning he only has the last say. So when the Church is split on an opinion, the pope decides and the discussion is over. It does not mean the pope can just say anything and it is always meant to be correct. That is a common misconseption.

    My best friend is a devout Catholic and is very upset about the Pope's decision to ban Latin mass as he thinks it is disrespectful to forgo the traditions of the Church. He has even gone to a few Orthodox masses because of this. Catholicism seems to move more with the times- whether positive or negative. Perhaps in an effort to be more "Universal". And the Orthodox Church remains more traditional.

      mark --> orthodox church of egypt
      thomas ---> orthodox church of india..
      paul---> orthodox church of greece
      peter---> church of rome.. which was teamed up with the orthodox churches of the east but THE GREAT SCHISM started after the one of the cardinal came with an order of the pope to anathematize the patriarch of Constantinople in hagia sophia but anyway the schism would happen anyway due to the filioque (from the son) that was added to the nicean creed.... by the catholic church ..
