Should this article be merged with Syrian Orthodox Church? Aren't these just two different names for the same thing?

Ah, there's the rub. There are actually two groups who lay claim to 'Syrian Orthodox'. One is part of the Oriental Orthodox Communion, and calls itself the "Syrian Orthodox Church". The other is part of the Eastern Orthodox Communion and calls itself the "Antiochian Orthodox Church"--although they called themselves the "Syrian Orthodox Church" until fairly recently.

What does this have to do with Antiochian Orthodox Church? Please leave advertisements off Talk pages. —Preost ^{talk contribs} 23:44, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Latin rite

The Roman Catholic Church also claimed the patriarchate and appointed titular Latin rite patriarchs for many centuries, until the office was left perpetually vacant as of 1964.

Why was it left vacant? To avoid confrontation? Where were the Latin-rite followers redirected to? --84.20.17.84 11:35, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
