THE INDEPENDENCE HEROES OF 1821,WHEN THEY TOOK THERE OATH TO FREE GREECE FROM THE MUHAMEDDAN TURKS,DID SO AT AGHIA LAVRA,UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF THE LOCAL BISHOP.
THE ORTHODOX CHURCH ALSO PRESERVED THE GREEK LANGUAGE AND CULTURE FOR 400 YEARS UNDER OPPRESSIVE MUSLIM TURK RULE.
THUS ORTHODOXY IS SYNONYMOUS WITH HELLENISM
