The first thing I fell in love with about Orthodoxy was that my opinions are irrelevant, which is a sign of the preservation of Truth. I wanted a sound and stable faith, one that was maintained and preserved, not one that was changed and influenced by the tastes and opinions of sinners like me. Atom Tate
About This Quote

Considering the fact that the Orthodox church maintains the truths of the bible and has been around for thousands of years, it is surprising that people still have a hard time believing in God. However, it is important to remember that the church has been around for thousands of years and has been able to successfully preserve its own existence. Truth maintains its existence because it is preserved by a body of followers who have a vested interest in preserving the truth. As a result, these followers have an incentive to preserve the truth and ensure that it does not change.
