Akhi Dean,

Check out this quote by Mosheim:

Quote:It is to the lasting honor of the Nestorian sect, that of all the Christian societies established in the East, they have preserved themselves the most free from the numberless superstitions which have found their way into the Greek and Latin churches. (Mosheim, Cent. XVI. Sect. iii. Part i.)

Forgiving him for using the "Nestorian" misnomer - it's quite a statement, considering Mosheim himself was a Lutheran - no?

I wonder if Greek primacy is one of the "superstitions" he was alluding to? :wink:
