Describe the major differences between Roman Catholicism and Orthodoxy.

Following the Holy Fathers, Orthodoxy uses science and
philosophy to defend and explain its Faith. Unlike Roman Catholicism, which does not
build on the results of philosophy and science. The Church does not seek to reconcile
faith and reason. The Catholic church also categorizes the authority of the clergy,
while The Orthodox Church teaches that all bishops are equal. To be sure, there are
different ranks of bishops (patriarch, archbishop, metropolitan, bishop); nevertheless,
a bishop is a bishop.
