Great chart, except am I missing the Orthodox split?

Good point. That chart is only illustrating the splits after the “Reformation” though. So I imagine the Orthodox split is kind of assumed there. Or one could perhaps view them as still part of the Catholic Church for the purposes of this discussion (the body and blood of Jesus as the Eucharist).

And the Nestorians, who spread the gospel across Asia all the way to China, and who like us protestants had a great deal of trouble with the "Mary is the Mother of God" formulation.

Blessed among women she is, but the one who gave life to God? No.
