>>17678467The orthodox are true christians, more so than any other branch. It's even in the name - we practice the original form of christianity (or at least they try to be).
Also orthodox are the ones who never ran from their origin - all the christians in Palestina, Syria, Lebanon are orthodox. They stayed there despite muslim advances.
The orthodox suffered and bled for their faith. Killed by bolsheviks, oppressed by turks. Yet we are still there. We didn't break.
Christianity thrives on martyrdom and perseverance, not gay shit and PR optics like catholics do.
Sure, catholics went to pagan tribes in America and Africa. Armed with gunpowder, steel, superior in every aspect, teaching inferior powerless tribes the way. What an achievement! What a heroic feat! But against modern motivated enemy?
Modern Catholic Church (and better not even mention Protestants) have folded to communists. EU lefties own Vatikan now and the Pope blesses faggots and kisses nigger feet.
Meanwhile Orthodox never truly submitted to bolsheviks and thus was almost annihilated.
But thanks to that now - orthodox faith is growing once again, while other forms of christianity are as good as dead, at least in Eurasia.
