>>523870968>Orthodox>WhiteSeriously, which cluster is white? The Greek Orthodox crypto jews? The Ethiopians? The Turks?Closest is the Russkies I suppose.

Christ is Psy Op
Recently converted but I can't stand the ethnic component. I don' care about Greeks or Russians.
>>523870968basically, the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America recognizes Judaism as a distinct religious tradition and engages in respectful dialogue with Jewish communitiesthey don't like act of violence but that's expected i guessso OP wasted a fucking thread to make no fucking point since the position is simple to understand
>>523870968>home>damnable heretics from the other side of the worldPresbyterian, Congregationalist, and Reformed Baptist are the only reasonable forms of religion.
>>523871629They weren't. The Latin Church developed prior to Constantine and other than English and Celtic Christianity the liturgy was in Latin from day one.
>>523872494>Celtic Christianity the liturgy was in Latin from day onedidn't they find an ancient coptic psalter in ireland recently?
>>523872494No problem with Latin liturgy >>523872420Most Presbyterians parishes are pro gay
>>523872731>Most Presbyterians parishes are pro gayonly mainline pcusa. the rca presby church i grew up in is definitely not pro gay lol
>>523872904>mainline So the majority
>>523870968based thread orthobroUSA orthodoxy is the most sincere and energetic in the world, I hope other orthodoxies follow in your footstep as at this moment they are pretty corrupt and atheistic>>523872625>>523871629please don't be a faggot if you don't need toorthodox are considered 100% legit in catholicism (which is the original christian religion), don't go around ruining your reputation
>>523873124i think so but it shouldn't be to hard to find an rca or ortho presby church nearby. i grew up in the reformed church of america and im not even american
>>523872420>>523872731>>523872904The Reformed Bros are some of the cattiest fucking nigger-lovers I've ever seen in my entire life. In the end they're all just like most "Based," Protestants still at their core feminist egalitarians.I was married in a very Reformed branch of Presbyterianism. TL;DR my wife was neglecting the kids and I tried to fix the problem. But the church took HER side.Their little fucking "Session," send me a letter asking me to show up on charges of, "unBiblically deserting my children and abandoning my wife," which is not even remotely how the divorce went or what happened to my kids and the faggots who sent it to me knew that.They can all go to Hell and burn, every last single fucking Protestant. They destroyed Christendom, invited back in the Jew and laid the groundwork for the Late-stage Capitalist Hellscape we're all stuck in.I left the TradCat world because of Pope Francis but honestly I just don't give a fuck, I went back because at least the liturgy was fucking beautiful and spiritually enriching. I like the history, theology, philosophy, et al. and for all the Child-Fucker jokes about Catholic Priests I ain't never been done wrong by Catholics in the half my life spent as one. Fuck what the Pope's doing, I don't care. But the TradCat community is the last Based Christian community left. No other alternative exists.>muh OrdodogsyIf you're not born in it or at least Slavic, Greek or Arabic it doesn't matter what you do for them or what kind of person you are: they will NEVER accept you into their community and they will resent you as an alien. Every OrthoBro I knew from the internet growing up now all became Eastern Catholics because the Roman world isn't like that. Ordo-Niggers literally will praise a known operator in organized crime who doesn't give a shit about the religion beyond cultural praxis over some WASP kid who joined because he sincerely fell in love with the religion and chose it.
>>523873170American Orthodoxy is being held together by disillusioned American converts from other religions who are treated as stepchildren by the wider Orthodox world. Sometimes for good reason. You can tell which Orthodox Churches are mostly American converts from other churches because they end up being the most watered-down and liberal.At least with Americans converting to Catholicism there's a history of being Catholic at some point in their family tree.
Merry Early Christmas ortho bros! I went to my friend's orthodox baptism and wedding last year. Your churches are very beautiful even in America.t. Catholic
>>523873877I get what you mean but it's them who have the energy to make stuff (media & communities) without being gaslighted into it. And that's a big deal in my book. I live in an "Orthodox country" while being Catholic and believe me that I envy American Orthodox fellows.>At least with Americans converting to Catholicism there's a history of being Catholic at some point in their family tree.that's a different issue altogether, I personally see no overlap between them, Orthodox who are serious about Christianity will convert to Catholicism anyway...
>>523874115Merry Early Christmas to you too Catholicbrot. Catholic
>>523871956Find an OCA church. Usually all converts.
>>523873676That is only true with the over 50 crowd, even then only a little. Every ethnic church I've been to was extremely welcoming, antiochian, rocor, oca, Greek. Try harder.
>>523873877The truth would set you free, anon.
>>523872494The language is irrelevant, but the doctrine and ecclesiology was Orthodox. btw the TLM wasn't a thing until the 9th century
>>523873676>If you're not born in it or at least Slavic, Greek or Arabic it doesn't matter what you do for them or what kind of person you are: they will NEVER accept you into their community and they will resent you as an alien.Sorry you feel this way, but this has not been my experience at all. I converted to Orthodoxy in a Greek church with zero Greek ancestry and they treat me like one of their own. I hope if there is an Orthodox church in your area, you give it another try and find that more welcoming than you expect.
