Orthodox didn't change the rules from the acient times.
For example, a married man is allowed to be a priest. That existed in the Catholic Church until more recently when some Pope decided otherwise.
MASS was in local language until some POPE decided otherwise.
Paul and Peter didn't interfere with that!
In fact GREEK, if anything, should have been the FORMAL langauge of MASS
It was what everyone in the Middle East spoke offically. Even Pilate, even Jesus.

yes, is in the words of the Nicene Creed, and has to do with the Trinity.
Catholics believe that the Holy Spirit comes from the Father and the Son and the Orthodox believe that the Holy Spirit comes from the Father. the rest is all small stuff, nothing we can not work out.

no longer plenty. Filique, the point of the authority of the pope. They been negotiating for over 40 years to reunite. the guy ok is punctiliously off. The pope is a sinner like incredibly everyone else and is going to confession. I doubt he's incredibly Orthodox, no longer even Orthodox could say something as protestant as that.

As an Orthodox Christian I see so many differences. I think you should go to www.orthodoxinfo.com, the more you look into it Roman Catholics and Protestants start looking a lot more a like than RC and Orthodoxy.

Nope. Except Orthodox priests dont have to confess to pedophilia as much. And the pope is just another guy with a funny hat.

This is too large of a question to fully answer here. I would suggest you start researching yourself to learn what each church believes and where they tend to disagree.
