Orthodox Christmas: Conflicts and celebrations
In the Western world we often neglect that there is a vibrant church in the East. In 1954 AD the Eastern and Western churches separated. One book reviewed on BookIdeas.com advanced that Christianity was unified until the Reformation--betraying a lack of knowledge of this schism on the author's part.

I thought I would share with you this explanation of the Orthodox traditions and how groups are trying to re-identify with their spiritual past. Many thanks to Brian J Požun for providing this insight.
