What is the Orthodox religion?

Answer 1

The Orthodox religion is very similar to the Catholic religion, except that the Orthodox do not believe that the holy spirit proceeds from both the Father and Son according to Catholic tradition, they believe it proceeds only from the Father. They also do not accept the Pope as their leader as of yet, but Pope Francis wants them to come up with an agreement that both can accept.

Answer 2

The Orthodox Christian Church is the embodiment of the Nicene Creed, which was instituted in 325 AD. It is the first century Christian Church as instituted by Jesus Christ himself.

Orthodox Christianity is a branch of Christianity that follows the teachings and traditions of the early Christian Church. It is comprised of several autocephalous (self-governing) churches, including the Greek Orthodox Church, Russian Orthodox Church, and others. Orthodox Christians emphasize the importance of tradition, scripture, and the sacraments in their faith.
