If the Orthodox church came first, why don't they believe Purgatory exists? The idea of Purgatory has been around since the earliest stages of Christianity, before the schism. If that really came first, they would still believe in purgatory. Technically, neither of them came first, they split at the same time. I find Roman Catholicism to be more consistent with early Christianity.
