Why don't the orthodox church wash the feet of men on Holy Thursday?
The Orthodox Church does the re-enactment of the washing of the feet service on Holy Thursday. This is done in Jerusalem where the Patriarch washes the feet of his priests, and is also done in Greece by the Archbishop of Athens. Other local churches do this, but not all parish churches have their own washing of the feet re-enactments. These re-enactments are done by a bishop (representing Jesus) washing the feet of his priests (representing the 12 disciples), so it is usually done in Orthodox churches when a bishop is present with 12 priests during the service.
How is a foot washing Baptist different from a regular baptist?
The only difference would be that the foot-washers believe in a third ordinance. Traditional Baptists believe in only two ordinances: a one time baptism after salvation and the periodic observance of the Lord's Supper, also known as Communion.

What are the doctrinal differences between the Southern Baptist and Free Will Baptist churches?
A very good question for a beginning denominational lesson. I can answer this based on my area and the books and lessons I have learned. In each region in America there are likely slight curves or differences even in the same denomination. However the Southern Baptist are the largest and most active of all the baptists. This is not to say that the FWB don't do lots of Godly work, they do. (I'm a Freewill myself.) Furthermore the SB churches are more consolidated than the FWB church is. You can find more differences among FWB than you can the Southern Baptists, laymen and clergy alike. In my area of eastern US including KY, VA, OH and IN there are FWB churches that are affiliated with an association. (A group of FWB united in doctrine and bylaws that cover a larger area.) The largest FWB association by far is the National FWB association and they stress tithing just as the Southern baptists do. The John-Thomas association has ministers who don't believe the bible commands the church to tithe 10 percent, but "to give cheerfully according to your ability of your money and time. God is mainly concerned with your desire to serve Him, not your ability to put 10 percent in the plate." ( I'm telling you the differences, you read and make your own decision.) Furthermore, the FWB churches are louder in their worship and less predictable in the order of things. You will see Freewill worship in a style more like a Pentecostal church except they don't practice speaking in unknown tongues or "being slain in the spirit." In some areas you may find a FWB Pentecostal or and independent church that calls themselves FWB but practice unknown tongues or being "slain in spirit". The FWB in my area are all part of either the John-Thomas or the National Association and do not practice these relatively new ideas of Pentecost. Nevertheless the FWB do believe in shouting, running, crying, and praising God by lifting up holy hands. Most of this happens during the singing. When the preaching comes you see a more quiet, attentive ear. Although some preaching gets folks stirred up and you may hear clapping, shouting and praising but generally we do not interrupt the preaching unless guided that way by the preacher himself. Ex: "Get up church and praise Him! Let folks know you are not ashamed." Or something like that. Other services are quieter and more like a teaching service than a worship. FWB believe that saved men can willingly turn their back on God's grace and walk no more with God and be condemned to Hell if they remain that way at death. We believe that a saved person can tempt God by sinning continually to the point of apostasy and thus never be able to return to His grace. All other Baptist including SB believe in eternal security and once you have been saved you can never fall away back into sin. (I never could understand this because all men are liable to sin and fall into sin even after salvation. God can and is willing to deliver us if we call on him. However some folks go deeper into sin after fervently serving God, but "If a righteous man turn from his righteousness to do wickedly, all the righteousness he hath done will not be remembered. HE WILL DIE IN HIS SIN" look that up. Ezekiel 3:20-21 The Southern Baptist, Regular Baptist and Primitive Baptist put less stress on baptism of water than the FWB. However all agree that the water doesn't have any ability or power to save or wash away sin. Only the Blood of Christ and our faith in that can do that. SB services will generally include contemporary singing and the whole congregation quietly paying attention. the deacon will come by for the offering and then the preacher will preach his sermon that he has prepared. FWB generally don't prepare a drawn out sermon but preach as they have studied the bible and as they feel led of the Holy Spirit. But I have heard our minister preach a sermon and use the same general message again at another FWB church or after a while use it again. But from memory, not notes. These are some differences. I love God's people no matter what denomination as long as they live and teach and preach the Holy Bible not some new thing. The old is sufficient. God Bless u. The main doctrinal differences belong in two major categories. The first has to do with basic theology. Free Will Baptists are Arminian, Southern Baptists tend toward Calvinism. The main point is that Free Will Baptists believe that a person who has accepted Jesus as their Savior can, willfully and knowingly, divorce themselves from faith in Jesus Christ. This condition is known as apostasy. The person who has willingly entered into apostasy, a renunciation of faith in Christ, is forever lost and cannot be renewed again to faith. Southern Baptists, in general, do not believe that a true believer in Christ will, or sometimes can, renounce their faith in Christ. Secondly, in the area of church ordinances, Free Will Baptists believe in three ordinances; Believer's Baptism, Lord's Supper, and Washing the Saints' Feet. Southern Baptist only believe in two ordinances; Believer's Baptism and Lord's Supper.
