Orthodoxy refers to the accepted or traditional beliefs and practices within a religion, ideology, or field of study, emphasizing conformity to established doctrines. It often carries a sense of authority and stability, but in modern contexts, it can highlight the tension between tradition and innovation, as seen in debates over scientific paradigms or cultural norms. This term underscores how rigid adherence can both preserve core values and stifle progress.
