	Protopresbyter Alexander Schmemann: Eastern Orthodox
		It was a world in which that synthesis between the Latin West and the Greek East was already accomplished within one culture, which we call usually Hellenistic culture.
		Eastern Orthodoxy means that the dogma, the doctrinal, the intellectual content of religion is given a very important priority.
		Orthodoxy is the Eastern form of Christianity, though it has always claimed to have preserved the fullness of faith, to be the true Church, not to be just a geographical expression of Christianity.

	Eastern philosophy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eastern philosophies are typically overlooked, but increased connections between "East and West" in recent years have served to bridge the culture gap by a large degree.
		Eastern philosophic traditions generally tend to be less concerned with the existence or non-existence of gods.
		Eastern philosophies, on the other hand, typically hold that people are an intrinsic and inseparable part of the universe, and that attempts to discuss the universe from an objective viewpoint as though the individual speaking was something separate and detached from the whole are inherently absurd.

	Western world Summary
		The Second World was the Eastern bloc in the Soviet sphere of influence, including the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact countries.

		From that moment on, the historical home of the Church was the Roman Empire as it developed primarily in the West when Constantine transferred the capital city of the empire from Rome, first to the city of Nicomedia, and then later on to the newly founded capital of Constantinople.
		Within the next hundred years all independent Orthodox Churches in Syria, in Egypt, and elsewhere, were under the cloak of Islam, and this brilliant millennium came to an end.
