Dyophysitism
Dyophysitism (from Greek Δύο "Duo" (Two) and Φύσις "Physis" (Nature)) is the theology that Jesus Christ had two distinct and inseparable natures – human and divine. It is different from Monophysitism, the theology that Jesus Christ either had one nature, or that Jesus's humanity and divinity was united in one nature. Denominations, branches, and churches of Christianity that profess Dyophysitism comprise Chalcedonian Christianity due to them accepting the Chalcedonian Definition, the dyophisitc theology of Jesus, which the Monophysite branches of Christianity rejected and therefore comprises Anti-Chalcedonian Orthodox Churches (Oriental Orthodoxy comprises virtually all of the Anti-Chalcedonian Orthodox Churches). Most denominations, branches, and churches of Christianity are Chalcedonian, and uphold the Dyophysitic theology of Jesus, in contrast to the Anti-Chalcedonian Orthodox Churches. At least 92.2% of all Christians worldwide belong to Chalcedonian churches and denominations that uphold the Dyophysitic theology and view regarding the natures of Jesus Christ, predominantly Latin Catholics which makes up a significant majority of the population in the Western world (especially in Europe) and Latin America.
