A thought that I had on the Sunday of the Fathers of the 1st Ecumenical Council. Being Orthodox and a musician, I thought of this analogy yesterday. To me, the Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church can almost be compared to two twins that both took piano lessons. They both started out playing classical music, but at some point one of them decided to delve into jazz, where there is more freedom and flexibility with rules. The problem is that once you get started on jazz and improvisation, it's hard to go back. You are always having to move forward and come up with new things.
Anyway, I'll let you try to tie all this in together.
