Lapraka............Orthodox has many meanings. Its even used in the sport of boxing...!!!
An Orthodox religious belief or interpretation is one handed down by the churches founders and then leaders. When capitalised, as in Orthodox Judaism, Orthodox refers to a branch within a large religious organisation that claims to honour the religion's "original and/or traditional" beliefs.
The English language refers to 'Orthodox" as something old, traditional, original, the first, etc.
You may look to google and find a number of meanings for Orthodox, but in the religious framework it most certainly is understood to mean original, oldest, etc.
And as a matter of fact the Christian Orthodox faith is the oldest of the Christian organisations. It was as late as 1054 (I think) that Rome split, and approx 500 years later the Protestant church split from the Catholic church.
Hope thats cleared up any confusion.
