> orthodoxy vs. christianity imo the split is more likely related to the great schism as well as the implicit portage of values between the west and the east with the east being more inspired by greek-lifted virtues in a nietzschean understanding with the west digressing and developing more romanticised values. the protestants in general just brought the west-christianity further by even demolishing the concept of "institutions" and diminishing, at least in principle, the dependency on a given hierarchy or format (any place can be a chuch if you so chose to!), yet it is not a form of regression from tribalism, but the way forward by further "humbling" religion in the west. orthodoxy then also became the arm of the government, a mode of justice by other means, that further entrenched greek virtues and the ensuing violence and discordia that were, in fact, encouraged during those times, that can now be confused with primitive nations. orthodoxy is now far gone and far too polluted by statism to be recoverable, yielding any way possible and trying to cover all the angles, very closely to islam and namely sharia, just to appease the current state. the violence, the narcissism, the guile and all the observable in slavish nations are simply a consequence thereof and that is why you confuse it with "primitive nations". they are not primitive, they are just convinced that there is no other way than the race to the top, which is a result of the virtues they kept after the schism and the split of the roman empire.
