1 answer:

3 0

1. The Roman Catholic liturgy was traditionally in Latin. The Orthodox Churches use other languages, including Greek, Russian and Syriac. 

2. The Orthodox Churches allow married priests. The Roman Catholic Church (with very rare exceptions) does not. 

3. The Orthodox and Catholic Churches use different ways to calculate the date of Easter, so that in most years they end up celebrating the feast on different days. 

4. The Catholic Church recognises the Pope as having supreme spritual authority on earth. The Orthodox churches dispute this. 

5. The Catholic Church recognises a number ecumenical councils which the Orthodox Churches do not (eg Trent, Vatican I, Vatican II). 

6. The Catholic Church accepts the 'filioque' clause (Google it) in the Nicene Creed. The Orthodox churches consider it to be an unjustified addition.

It honestly depends on their personal situation. Some may have gotten away or looked over (extremely rare and lucky), and some may have just survived.

The body is insane and will do anything keep us alive - that's it main job. Some people who go into shock manage to survive, as their body shuts off any unneeded parts - mental awareness, etc. Some people also may have just gotten lucky, and their bodies may have lived through what they went through.
