The Roman Catholic Church regards the                Protestant churches as heterodox in many points. In the                United States the term orthodox is frequently used with                reference to divergent views on the doctrine of the                Trinity. Thus it has been common to speak of the                Trinitarian Congregational churches in distinction from                the Unitarian, as Orthodox. The name is also applied to                the conservative, in distinction from the                [bd]liberal[b8], or Hicksite, body in the Society of                Friends. --Schaff-Herzog Encyc.
