In what ways is protestantism more similar to orthodox christian than to catholicism.

Could you give me 10 reason for your answer?

(it's not a school question, by the way, although I know it might sound like one, but usually when I ask a question people say yes or no, and that's it, and I'm interested in learning and know the reasons why people think the way they do, rather than just taking a straw poll. I'm not so democratic in my thinking! :-) )

thanks :-)
Miss Sarah: that's a pretty good link :-)

Here is a little comparison chart between the 3 Christian denominations, I hope it helps.

[edit] Others
Some small churches in the West use the word "Orthodox" in their titles but are quite distinct from these two families of churches. Examples are the Celtic Orthodox Church, the Western Orthodox Church in America,

- There is no superior human primate, like Catholic pope.
- National languages in prayers (prior Vaticanum II)

I suppose that's all.
