Great Theosophists--Ammonius Saccas (9 Of 29)
Article from the journal Theosophy, published in 1936, presenting this figure in the context of the struggle between orthodox christianity and Alexandrian eclecticism.
http://www.wisdomworld.org/setting/saccas.html

Extractions: A MMONIUS S ACCAS The Church now found herself in conflict not only with the religious ideas of her self-chosen adversaries, but with their scientific views as well. The orthodox Church Fathers declared that God made the world out of nothing. The Gnostic Fathers denied this unphilosophical assertion and held that the universe was the result of a gradual unfoldment from within without. Christianity asserted that the earth was flat, and against this theory was pitted that of Aristarchos of Samos, who had been a member of the Alexandrian School in 280 B.C., and had taught the sphericity of the earth as Pythagoras had taught it before him. In the fourth century, Science and orthodox Christianity came to a deadlock, the bone of contention being the idea of the sphericity of the earth. Criticizing the ancient theory of the roundness of the earth, Lactantius, one of the most polished rhetoricians among the Christians, indignantly inquired: "Is it possible that men can be so absurd as to believe that the crops and trees on the other side of the earth hang downward, and that men have their feet higher than their heads? If you ask them how they defend those monstrosities, how things do not fall away from the earth on that side, they reply that the nature of things is such that heavy bodies tend toward the center, like the spokes of a wheel, while light bodies tend from the center to the heavens on all sides. Now I am really at a loss what to say of those, who, when they have once gone wrong, steadily persevere in their folly and defend one absurd opinion by another."

Search Agnosticism / Atheism Eastern Orthodox Christianity Back to Last Page Glossary Index Related Terms Roman Catholicism The oldest division in Christianity is between the Western Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church. The Eastern Orthodox church (which constitutes the second largest Christian denomination in the world, after Roman Catholicism) is a union of independent churches. Each is autocephalous, which means that each is lead by its own head bishop. These Eastern Orthodox churches share a common faith, common principles and organization, and a common liturgical tradition. The patriarch in Constantinople is analogous to the pope in that he represents the Eastern Orthodox Church to the world, but he does not now nor has he ever possessed the authority of the popes. He does not have any administrative powers beyond his own territory (patriarchate) and he does not claim infallibility. Eastern Orthodox doctrine was established by seven ecumenical councils which held between 325 and 787 and amended by other councils in the late Byzantine period.

Search Agnosticism / Atheism Religion in Ethiopia Eastern Orthodox Christianity Religion Links Religious Freedom Reports John Markakis has remarked of Ethiopia that "the dominant element in this culture and its major distinguishing feature is the Christian religion." Yet almost all of the analysis of Orthodox Christianity as practiced by Ethiopians has focused on the Amhara and Tigray. The meaning of that religion for the Oromo and others is not clear. For some Oromo who achieved significant political power in Amhara kingdoms in the eighteenth century and after, adherence to Christianity seemed to be motivated by nothing more than expediency By the mid-twentieth century, some educated Amhara and Tigray had developed skepticism, not so much of doctrine although that also occurred - as of the church's political and economic role. They had developed similar feelings toward the clergy, most of whom were poorly educated. Nevertheless, the effects of the church's disestablishment and of the continuing social upheaval and political repression impelled many Ethiopians to turn to religion for solace

Orthodox Christianity
About orthodox christianity No longer confined to immigrant communities, orthodox christianity in America has taken her proper place as a faith for all people.
http://www.acrod.org/orthodox1.html

Extractions: About Orthodox Christianity The Orthodox Christian Church was born on Pentecost in AD 33 with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles (see Acts 2:2-4). Through the missionary labors and martyric witness of countless men and women, and through the unbroken handing-down of the pure apostolic faith, it spread to every corner of the world: first the Near East, then Europe, Africa, and Asia. Orthodoxy was planted in North America in the late 18th century by monastic missionaries from Russia. Today the worldwide Orthodox Church has more than 225 million members. Each national Church (Russian, Greek, Serbian, etc.) is independent and self-administering, but is united in faith and sacraments with all the others. Some five million Orthodox from diverse ethnic backgrounds now live in the United States and Canada.

Ecumenism And The Ecclesiology Of Saint Cyprian Of Carthage
Excerpt from 'orthodox christianity and the Spirit of Contemporary Ecumenism', by Fr. Daniel Degyansky, considers Cyprian's doctrine a basic foundation block in Orthodox ecclesiology.

Introduction Modernism Commonly Misunderstood Terms Ecumenical Documents and Critiques General Articles Ecumenical Ecclesiology The Calendar Controversy False Union With Rome The Balamand Agreement Neo-Papal Patriarchalism Monophysites (Non-Chalcedonians) Epistles of Metropolitan Philaret The Resistance Movement Related Articles Saint Cyprian of Carthage developed with fearless consistency a doctrine of the complete absence of Grace in every sect which had separated itself from the True Church. His doctrine is one of the basic foundation blocks of Orthodox ecclesiology and it stands in direct opposition to the presuppositions of the ecumenical movement. Moreover, his warnings about the enemies of the Church have traditionally guided Orthodox in their response to those outside Her fold: Not only must we beware of what is open and manifest, but also what deceives by the craft of subtle fraud. And what can be more crafty, or what more subtle, than for this enemy...to devise a new fraud, and under the very title of the Christian name to deceive the incautious. [139]
Eastern Orthodoxy - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia
Eastern orthodox christianity (or Eastern Orthodoxy) refers primarily to Christian traditions descending from the Eastern Roman Empire or Byzantium.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Orthodoxy

Extractions: Eastern Orthodox Christianity (or Eastern Orthodoxy ) refers primarily to Christian traditions descending from the Eastern Roman Empire or Byzantium The "Eastern" churches with the largest number of adherents, according to the primary and narrow sense of "Eastern Orthodox", are the Russian and the Romanian Orthodox churches. The most ancient of the European Orthodox churches however is the Greek Orthodox Church . As English -speakers in the West generally use the term, however, "Eastern Orthodoxy" has a wider remit, which includes the " Oriental Orthodox " churches. The formal division of the Church into separate Eastern and Western churches is regarded as having occurred in in what is known as the Great Schism . Both churches claim to be the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church , and reject the other's claim to this title. The designation "Orthodox" reflects the additional claim of the Eastern church to have retained unchanged the original church traditions of teaching and worship . "Catholic" meanwhile reflects the claim by church leaders who are in full communion with Holy See to an all-encompassing authority on Christian matters. Some claim that the church of Rome, the

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Orthodox_Christianity

Extractions: I don't think this is NPOV. Certainly all of those claim to be orthodox, but also that the others are heterodox. There is not general agreement on which churches are orthodox. The Anglican churches also consider themselves orthodox, for example. Michael Hardy 00:28 15 Jul 2003 (UTC) I don't doubt Anglicans believe they're doing as God wishes, but I would be surprised if church leaders use the word "orthodox" to describe their church in terms of the larger history of Christianity. I don't know if they were Anglicans, which of course makes all the difference, but I'm sure I've heard people describe the Anglican church as protestant, of all things. Can you cite any text in which an Anglican leader calls the church "orthodox" in an appropriate sense? While I admit that the connotations of "orthodox" are problematic, I think "Orthodox Christianity" is a technical term that people use, and not an offensive one like "nigger." In the absence of evidence that other Christian sects are vying explicitly for the designation "orthodox" (i.e. as opposed to vying simply to be regarded as the most Christian, as fundamentalists do) I don't think there's any NPOV violation in defining the term as the article does now. I'm certainly open to evidence though.

http://members.aol.com/rbiblech/index.html

Extractions: We are a church with a "Reformed" perspective. This means that we are like the Protestant "Reformers" who sought to understand the Bible the way the Apostles taught it in the New Testament. As Protestants, they protested against the abuses of the established church, and sought to reform the church back to the biblical pattern. Reformed Bible Church seeks to be fully biblical in everything: God-centered worship and Bible-based doctrine, without the gimmicks, legalism, or liberalism of most modern churches. Reformed Bible Church is committed to the Holy Scripture as our sole authority in matters of faith and daily walk. We emphasize the sovereignty of God in the salvation of men and the lordship of Christ in the believer's life. We embrace the historic faith of orthodox Christianity, tracing our spiritual roots back through the Puritans and Reformers. We also acknowledge our accountability to that Apostolic form of doctrine set forth in the creeds and confessions of the Early Church. We are located at 4850 Old Jacksonville Road (2 miles west of Veterans Parkway, on the west side of Springfield). What We Believe:

Extractions: W elcome to Evang-Ortho, the Evangelical Protestant and Orthodox Christian Discussion Forum. The forum is for the balanced discussion of the Evangelical Protestant and Orthodox Christian traditions and theology, comparing and contrasting the two ("balanced" here means that neither side is the official position of the list; e.g. this list is not merely to explain Orthodoxy or Evangelicalism to inquirers as is the case elsewhere). This group is ostensibly to pick up the slack where the old evang-orth@xc.org list left off to agape-rehab list , oriented more toward organizing humanitarian efforts. The baseline requirement for members is that they affirm as a given for purposes of discussion the Nicean-Constantinopolitan Creed (with or without the filioque clause). Interpretations of the Creed will vary, of course (and would certainly be a good topic of discussion), but participants should try to frame all discussions with it in mind.
