I'm not going to put words in this priest's mouth, but it sounds like it is possible that he would agree that Christianity as we know it today was basically fashioned by man. Like Luther and Calvin? :) Surely, ever since the Pentecost there have been forces that tried to fashion their own version of Christianity. That's why there are Apostolic Fathers, Church Fathers and Patristcis who wrote to preserve the catholic and orthodox faith given to us by Christ, lest we stray. The history of Christianity is nothing but evidence that men try to fashion Christianity in their own image.
