Why is it an Orthodox Church? What makes it different from a non-Orthodox Church? My take is that they think they are better than others of their own faith. Take Jews for instance. Orthodox Synagogues don't accept conservative or reform Jewish ordinances. They are getting better but still snooty as heck about it.

"Orthodox" is the proper name of their church. Lots of standing, singing and chanting in unknown tongues - mostly Russian or Serbian.

Wear good shoes if you attend, they are not brief and too the point. Broads attending an Orthodox event would be well advised not to wear stilletto type heels.

you explained that well!

maybe you can explain better than me the difference between orthodox with a smal o

and Orthodox Church with a capital O

"orthodox" with small o is simply doing something the usual or accepted way.
