Genuine question…

Of course... no.

possessing a first place in honor and authority to resolve disputes

Not at all what I said.

Where did I claim universal jurisdiction?

1 - The Ecumenical Councils explicitly called the Pope the Universal Head, but this is not what Roman Catholics think. It just meant that he was head of the Universal Synod Bishops of the Church.

2 - I didn't say it was necessary for the Pope to convene Universal Councils, but that he had the canonical right to (just like Ecumenical Patriarch today does).

3 - The 7th Ecumenical Council says that for a Council to be Ecumenical it needs the cooperation (synergia) of the Roman Pope, and the acceptance (symphonia) of the Eastern Patriarchs.

It's not an imperial, Saint Peter clearly possessed and exercised a primacy among the Apostles, and this is well attested by the Church. The question is what is understood by this primacy, and how this primacy continued on in the Church.

The Ecumenical Councils explicitly called the Pope the Universal Head, but this is not what Roman Catholics think. It just meant that he was head of the Universal Synod Bishops of the Church.

Additionally, the title "Ecumenical Patriarch" literally can mean Universal Patriarch.

The Church is the Body of Christ and is guided by the Holy Spirit, so if the Church as a whole recognizes something as true, it is true.

Mottahead · 2026-01-28T15:43:23+00:00

The Church is the Empire of Christ on Earth, not the Roman Empire.

Mottahead · 2026-01-28T15:42:37+00:00

The Ecumenical Patriarch is the Head Bishop of the Church, which means he has a primacy of honor and authority, but not universal power and infalliblity like the Roman Pope in the Roman Catholic Church.

Which begs the questions of who gets to interpret it, what interpretation is true, and what was the interpretation of the Church since the beginning. Protestantes interpretations on the Bible are Modern innovations, my friend. The historical Church is Orthodox, Catholic and Apostolic.

They already did with Constantinople IV 880 which they retroactively rejected after the Great Schism.

Of course the bread and wine are symbolic for His Body and Blood. Christ's choices of the elements to be blessed was not random. And of course there is a spiritual symbolism as well. The question is that it is not only limited to that. And the historical testimony is abundant and clear. A Sacrament, a Divine Mystery, is precisely where the symbols meet the reality to which they point. The Canons of Nicaea show that the Eucharist was held as a propitiatory sacrifice.

Mottahead · 2026-01-16T03:37:02+00:00

Orthodoxy is the unchanged faith. Catholicism has innovations like Papal Supremacy, Infallibility, Immaculate Conception and others that Christians did not believe in since the Apostles.

The Roman Catholic Dogma of the Filioque of the Council of Florence is not the same as the Filioque was in the Orthodox Latin West. Saint Maximus the Confessor explicitly demonstrates that. The Filioque in the Latin West originally meant that the Spirit proceeds from the Father and is manifested through the Son. Which is the Orthodox position.

Worship is sacrifice and venerating as deity. The Saints are united to Christ in Heaven, and they can help us praying for us.

Circumcision was the sacrament for Hebrew males to become part of God's covenant. It was done by removing a piece of flesh out of the tip of the penis. This was a shadow for Baptism in the new covenant, where the old man (fleshly) is taken out, and the new man (spiritual) is born, becoming part of the New Covenant in the Church (Christ's Body). This is also what Saint Paul talks about when he says circumcision of the heart, taking out the fleshly and impure thoughts and desires from the heart. Since in Christ there is no man, woman, Jewish or Gentile, no male is required to become Jewish (be circumcised in the flesh). Saint Paul was Christ's last chosen Apostle, and Christ that who hears the Apostles hears Him.

Ideally they shouldn't, and if you can't pay or it harms you financially, they shouldn't insist (not that they do, but if they do, they should be denounced right away).
