I find it odd that we are the original church; yet most christians do not know that we exist. I go to a rc school, and whenever i mention my faith to my rc friends, it seems that it is just pushed aside.

BTW-Dont take any offense alwayselearning. Its good that you have a question and we are always happy to answer. It had nothing to do with you.

Welcome to TAW alwayslearning !

What Andreas said :)

Orthodox means literally Right praise, worship, or glory - From the Gk. Ortho + doxa.

When capitalized it means the Church founded by Christ. As an adjective, it should be lowercase.

This too shall change :) , and is really true in Western (esp. US) civilization. In the East, Greece, Russia, Slavic countries etc. Orthodoxy is (demographically) Christianity :clap:

when you write [ Q U O T E ] at the end , it should be [ / Q U O T E ]

(I spaced letters so I would actuelly make a quote bubble)
