    I am sure 90% of Catholics and Orthodox people can't name other differences than "we make the cross sign in different directions and we celebrate Easter on different dates". But we divide because some bearded priests a millenium ago told us so.

    It's not really possible to have a productive conversation with someone who obviously holds that much contempt towards my beliefs and religious people in general.
    If you DM me with a classification thread or poll I'm gonna break into your house and shit in your fridge

    I don't even know what your beliefs are. Are you Catholic?

    Also, you assume that I hold contempt towards religious people even though I have shown no indication of such. Unless you imply that every religious person has a "I am superior" mindset.

    Orthodox, but it's not like it makes a difference to you, because you have repeatedly made comments that imply looking down on religious people in general, or that we get all of our beliefs from "bearded men", or whatever, so to sit there and try to convince you that this is not the case for many of us would just be a waste of time.
