Answer 2

It stems fron greek Orthos=correct, fundamental,right,on foot, and the word Dogma=belief, credo,expect(ancy).
Means "the correct belief".
Christians orthodoxes are Greeks, Russians,Bulgarians,Armeni- ans, some Libanese,etc.
But even these, stem from Jewish, so to my opinion the real orthodoxes are the jewish!
