The Catholics have the Pope, the Anglicans (who are Catholic-Lite) have Brenda, and the other Protestants make a big deal out of having no leader at all. But what of the Orthodox?

There are four Patriarchs, in Constantinople (Ecumenical), Jerusalem, Antioch and Alexandria, and all Orthodox churches worldwide are affiliated with one or another. There are local Archbishops too.

Don't be silly! It got to be one of the 3 gods of trinity. You know each one takes charge of one of the 3 denominations, the Catholic, the Anglican and the Protestants. This is what trinity is for!

Orthodox leaders are generally in charge. I doubt that anyone thinking outside the box would have a chance at leadership.

They are split into Archdiocese headed by an Archbishop. One of the Archbishops gets elected as leader per region. There is no Big Dick as such.
