[edit] Announcements (please update as needed)
- In case you didn't know, various merges have been proposed among the three articles Eastern Christianity, Orthodox Christianity, and Orthodox Church. Apparently the use of the word "Orthodox" is being considered POV by some. Discussion on appropriate nomenclature is at Talk:Eastern Christianity. ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 16:18, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

- Problem:
- Some of you may have run across an editor named Lima before, he is not Orthodox, but claims to be able to interpret Orthodox teaching on a number of sensitive issues to try and bring them into conformity with the Vatican line; specifically, he is now seeking to apply the concept of "Original Sin" as developed by Saint Augustine, to all Churches that historically have never had anything to do with Augustine, and he is willing to dig up any statement by anyone in any other church, and selectively quote it out of context to "demonstrate" that all the churches are aligned with the Vatican on this question. I can't speak for every Eastern Church, but I know that in the Coptic-affiliated Churches, there is no notion of "Original Sin" in Augustinian terms of laying a guilt trip on infants from birth, and this has always been one of the main sticking points. He is edit warring and continually reverting my versions because he says I have no support for the Orthodox view. I have just thrown up a disputed tag and am requesting experts on the true Orthodox doctrine on all the various Eastern Churches to look over the section and set the matter straight in more neutral language. With regards, ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 22:57, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
I too would be glad of any input. I am only seeking illumination on what really is Orthodox teaching on the effects of Adam's Fall on his descendants. I am certainly not trying to claim that Orthodox Churches simply accept St Augustine's interpretation. The Catholic Church does not do so. Perhaps not even Calvinists do.
