I was raised Roman Catholic and I was taught about the schism.
However, it was framed as the Eastern Orthodox Catholics broke off from mainstream Catholicism, therefore Roman Catholics were the “original Catholics.”
It does kind of tickle me how much the folks that taught me that, value tradition so highly that they try to rationalize this kind of thing until they once are “traditional.”
Yeah I thought I was going nuts here. The eggs seemed like one of the least wasteful parts of the whole celebration.
