Heresy or Schism .... pick heresy he says, everytime. Sheesh. Thanks for this post kattracks...for it's a direct illumination of the undergarments beneath the robes of these renegade bishops.

Let's translate: a "church" is more important that the collective beliefs of its members. If beliefs must be sacrificed, oh well, Christ would approve.

(Jim Jones and David Koresh may be extreme examples of this logic, but only in the minds of a schismatic, right?)

There is a word for this outlook on the church, and it begins with the letter "i". Anyone? Anyone?

"There really are no wrong beliefs, as long as we all stick together! Think of all the new doctrines we could create, if we just had more unity."

I don't know your "i" word reference but I can think of an "a" word. Sounds like apostasy to me.

Idiots! whoring in false doctrine is the problem - not schism. When Israel whored around in false doctrine and false gods for so long he couldn't stand it anymore, he
schismed Israel! Broke it in half and spread the inhabitants into the countryside away from Rome. And These guys playing at philosophy are so full of themselves that they stand at the head of people thinking themselves Christian and say the opposite of what God's word says. No better than from whence their vileness came.
