With respect, we know we disagree strongly about some of the orthodox beliefs. So in that regard, for you, I suppose you do see it that way. However for those who see the Trinity as a biblical teaching (for example), the creeds and the purpose behind them did not come from apostasy, but to combat them.
This conversation is probably not really one that we can have, as much as I enjoy talking with you. It just centres too much on where we part ways, on the big issues and whether or not people in the Church down through the ages have been given wisdom to understand them. You would say no, I would say yes, in many cases. I would, of course, caution always checking against scripture, but again, in these big issues, you and I tend to see the bible teaching very different things. And I think we've already been over them. Is there any point going there again and risking animosity arising? I would say definitely not!
