Benjamin, I finally got through all your artciles. Clearly, you have a definitive understanding of the Orthdox Church with all its strengths and inherent weaknesses. You also may understand why it's hard to class ourselves with the other Christian denominations and why it is appaling when we get thrown in the same pot. I am unsure what your agenda may be beyond the thirst for knowledge and as you may well know, we Orthodox are not prosletyzers. I think you will throughly enjoy some of the writers of "The Philokalia", especially, St. Maximos the Confessor. This link is also for a book which will really open your eyes on the mystical Christian pursuits of Eastern Church: https://svspress.com/orthodox-psychotherapy-the-science-of-the-fathers/
