The Highway Forums General Discussion Open Forum Moving toward orthopraxy

John,

Who was the author of that article?... just curious.

Secondly, how did the author conclude that all other religions other than Christianity are known as "reilgions of orthopraxy" (religions of right practice)? Did he/she mean that they are more consistent with their respective 'orthodoxy'?

Thirdly, one cannot practice 'orthopraxy' without 'orthodoxy'. How does know how to live unless there is a set of laws and guidelines that instructs the adherent how to act?

Lastly, I don't see historic Christianity as one which was initially concerned with orthopraxy over orthodoxy before the Reformation. In Paul's Epistles, he most often starts with right doctrine and then applies those doctrines to life. Think of all the Creeds and controversies that were written over orthodoxy before the Reformation.
