First Attempt At Posting the Poll Did Not Work…2nd Attempt 😉
 
I voted #4. I love the eastern Christians, both Catholic and non-Catholic. God bless them all.
 
I voted for number four even though I do not think of them has helping Rome in as much as helping the world survive. Together, we are the two lungs pumping the Holy SPirit into the world.😃

What is considered East?

That is a harder question to answer than you would think. TO make it simple, Greek Orthodox and Russian Orthodox. There are others, but you are probably not familier with them.

East historically meant everythign east of Greece. West was west. Greece was more or less the division area, but eventually it became all orthodox. Rome was central to Western Christianity, and the other four Patriarchs for the Eastern Christians.

I define it as “churches that don’t use the Roman/Latin rite.” This would include the Byzantine Eastern churches and the various rites of the Oriental churches.

I accept that definition, and think it is better than mine, as long as you are not trying to separate those in union with Rome and those not in union with Rome.

It gets too complex.

I agree with you. Notice how I didn’t make a reference to Orthodox or Catholic.
