  • i thought that the senior patriarch in the eastern orthodox church is the ecumenical patriarch (bartholomew), the senior patriarch for the catholics is the roman pope (they have senior bishops in all the different parts of the catholic church, eg gr…
  • i looked at lots of sources recently on the internet, and it seems to be about 80 million, but i am not sure as many stats are derived from government figures and are not always up to date or accurate.
