No, they aren't different religions, but different forms of Christianity according the Wikipedia, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Orthodox_Church and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protestantism . I think it is a non-biased term that doesn't not uses the term "heresy", as this term is so much charged, from the Ancient verb αίρω, a different dogma, that separated from the mainstream. https://el.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/αίρεση

orthodoxy should not be accepted as a translation of ορθοδοξία. It should be Orthodox Christianity. Orthodoxy means something else

Good morning Mercedes!!!
The word Protestantism is not much longer than its English counterpart. He actually wants to show you how words are formed with a small addition to the suffix.
- Προτεστάντης => Προτεσταντ"ισμός"
- Κομμουνιστής => Κομμουν"ισμός"
- Άθεος => Αθε"ϊσμός"
This observation of the variations in words can help you understand the "mechanism" of word construction.

I learned about this several years ago.My hope was the DUO can b a bit more forgiving,that is all. Second issue:have you a further Greek course?I would very much like to carry on learning.Greek Team has done a very good job. Third question:there were some "rumours"about Duo starting a course of Αρχαια Ελληνικα.Please take me in account if you ever start such course.Many thanks.
