I also get the impression you Russians are fundamentally conservative people by nature. Things that lasted are good because they lasted. I’ll liken it to your approach to religion: Orthodoxy is right because it’s old and because even if some of the Nicene scriptural interpretations are dubious sans appeal to tradition, muh tradition blow it out your ass, anything new is a “sect,” gg.

Scripture is just documented tradition. Appeals to Scripture are appeals to tradition.
