I’ll trust your knowledge on Origen, but I generally viewed Origen as well meaning who gradually slipped into Heresy by accident. What would your view be? Early Origen is good, but by the end, he had laid the groundwork for Arius.

His early years were orthodox and he was a brilliant theologian. His later work aquired Gnostic character for which he was eventually condemned (posthumously).
