Hi there! I've noticed that you've edited articles pertaining to the Eastern Orthodox Church. I wanted to extend an invitation to you to join the WikiProject dedicated to organizing and improving articles on the subject, which can be found at: WikiProject Eastern Orthodoxy. This WikiProject was begun because a need was perceived to raise the level of quality of articles on Wikipedia which deal with the Eastern Orthodox Church.
You can find information on the project page about the WikiProject, as well as how to join and how to indicate that you are a member of the project. Additionally, you may be interested in helping out with our collaboration of the month. I hope you'll consider joining and thank you for your contributions thus far! — A.S.

Hello. Might I ask you to take a look at this article? It makes a little mention of the Orthodox perspective, which is good, but I think more might be needed. More importantly, it seems, overall, to be written from a strongly fundamentalist Protestant POV. I would appreciate your help in correcting this situation. Biruitorul 00:44, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
The Catholic Church and Roman Catholic Church both link to the same page. Why? They are the same thing. Sometimes there is a tendency for some Protestants to see the Roman Catholic Church as expressly different from the Catholic Church or the ancient Church. Problem with this is two fold. The first is that Jesus only started one Church, not churches. Second is that of Apostolic Succession. In otherwords the Church Jesus Christ started is one church that is Apostolically Succeeded. If you are part of a group that believes Jesus started multiple churches and that Apostolic Succession is not required then chances are you are not in the legitimate Church. The Reformers clearly had a problem with the Roman Catholic Church the "Roman Catholic Church" and not so much the Eastern Church being called the " Orthodox Church". This was done in order to expressely indicate that Protestants had a problem with the Bishop of Rome, the Pope. ( Simonapro 08:26, 4 November 2006 (UTC))
But I did catch your questions in time and I will answer them. Let’s deal quickly with this term Catholic and then be done with it here because questions about that belong on that article’s discussion page really. Wikipedia hashed out the Catholic meaning debate a number of times (of which I was never part of, just watched) and it has always stayed or ended up with Catholic referencing Roman Catholic Church. The article (which I don’t edit, just watch) has argued it out there but you are welcome to discuss whatever there with editors about it and really this is where it is at. I recognize that the Orthodox Church is Catholic. Please take questions you have about that to the article discussion page.
