Talk:Orthopraxis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I don't understand the redirect. Orthopraxis means that somebody is inflexible in the practice of rituals and dharma. Hinduism is in many respects an orthopraxis relgion and not an orthodox religion. Andries 20:50, 7 May 2005 (UTC)

I want to replace the re-direct with the following

Orthopraxis refers to the right practice of a religion. It contrasts with orthodoxy, that refers to the right beliefs.

[edit] Orthodoxy meaning

I want to correct the phrase "orthodoxy means "correct teaching". Actually orthodoxy means "correct belief/opinion", from ancient greek ορθο (ortho) + δόξα (doxa) < from verb δοκω meaning believe/i m of the opinion. Blue cave (talk) 12:56, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
