i dont know the answer to your question though sorry, id also be interested in the answer, as well as how the Copts and other churches reacted

>>3078558
Never really thought about the Copts, though a lot of people don't

>>3078552
No fucks were given.
During the Reformation in Europe Orthodox church had other problems like maintaining its existence under pressure of catholics and turks (western and southern slavs, greeks, etc)

Protestantism was an autistic meme until people started getting hurt. But to be fair, France was a religious traitor in 30 years war.

I thought that Melanchthon reached out to the Patriarch of Constantinople, but when they got a copy of the Augsburg Confession which is almost as heretical to them as it is to the Catholics they pretended to never get his overtures.

Isn't that the guy who covered up for a bunch of pedos in Boston?

>>3078720
What was the problem with it?

>>3078552
The eastern church during the reformation was looking like it wouldn't last for the next 50 years.

Protestantism was literally just another heresy butthurt at the church that only became relevant because some english faggot was butthurt that the pope wouldn't let him divorce his wife for the millionth time

Even today protestantism is just another useless heresy, overshadowed by Catholicism.

>>3078995
What the fuck are you talking about? First off, the Church of England was the first divorce for Henry. Second, what England was doing with their shit had hardly any bearing on what was going on with Lutheranism and Calvinism. I doubt England was hardly a blip on their radar when they were going through their shit.

During the Reformation, Catholics were trying to convert all the Eastern Christians. In the case of India, the Portuguese forced them all to be Roman Catholics. Before that they were unfamiliar with Scholasticism or any of the context of Protestantism.

Only after the Portuguese power declined and the Dutch were rising did Protestants have major contact with non-Catholics. Not just in India, but as shown by Peter the Great's tour, everywhere else too.

Didn't the Puritans originated in Netherlands?

]>>3078904
Augsburg rejects veneration of saints and the Orthodox care more about that than Catholics; Lutherans only have two sacraments (and the Orthodox weren't sure how many but had at least 4) and kept the Catholic uses/problems with those two- no chrismation/confirmation immediately after baptism and baptism done by pouring instead of immersion; no direct invoking of the Holy Spirit over the bread and wine, not using leavened bread, etc.

>>3079067
Britain. There was a similar movement going on in the Netherlands, though, the Nadere Reformatie, and both movements had scholars who read each other's work and even studied under each other's teachers.

>>3078552
There was a Calvinistic patriarch of Constantinople who wanted to make the Orthodox Church Protestant but got thrown out because of heresy.

>>3079023
Except for whole Lutherans tacitly approving of polygamy to try to attract Henry like they did Philip of Hesse. Germans have always had such a great sense of pragmatism.

>>3078552
How does that book compare to Greengrass'? I was excited to read it and then partway through the first chapter he spends some pages talking about dynastic rule ostensibly to set up context for issues like that but in reality it's just so he can rant about how stupid and terrible he thinks the concept is. I've never noped out of a book so quickly.

>>3079322
You got a source on that? Never heard anything about polygamy. Figure that's the quickest way to lose converts in European Christianity.

>>3079539
Have some knowledge of the Reformation before you go in. It gets really dense into theology and why people view shit the way they do. It can get out into the weeds at times, and sometimes you feel like you are almost reading a philosophy/theology book.

>>3078552
They didn't, until Protestants started reforming the East, at which point the reacted with great hostility, even conspiring with the Jesuits and the Turks to murder the patriarch of Constantinople (who had embraced Reformed theology).
