We traditional Orthodox do as well.

And True Traditional Orthodoxy also encourages women to wear headcovering.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

the problem with Orthodoxy is they allow for divorce, an orthodox priest told me they are allowed 1...and he told me there is a passage in the bible from St Paul that defends this position....but he's wrong...this goes against the direct teaching s of Christ .... the traditional Catholic Church doesn't allow for divorce, the modern church is another story, they hand out annulments like candy

I don't believe the Traditional Orthodox allow divorce either unless the husband or wife is being abused. Tell me sedevacantist, are you considering Traditional Orthodoxy?

This critique would sting if it were not for the laughable annulment process used by the RC to allow remarriage.

It does sting as your church clearly goes against Christ's teachings...do admit that much?
I already mentioned that the modern Church hands out annulments like candy

No, I will die a traditional Catholic as it is the true faith. Are you sure about divorce for the abused? The Catholic Church teaches that there situations that we can separate, fornication etc but even in those cases we would not be permitted to remarry, only If the spouse dies would we be at liberty...does the Orthodox Church teach this? From my conversations with the Orthodox they do not, but feel free to correct me.
