***Claiming that the HS originates from the Father and the Son is heresy. It is heresy because it denies the monarchy of the Father and because it degrades the Spirit to a secondary role.

And, since the Creed was written in Greek, and since the Greek text uses the word which implies the origin, it is the correct version and the only correct version. All translated versions need to adjust their Creeds to reflect the same meaning. That’s how the Church received the Symbol and that’s how it was confirmed in every Ecumenical Council, and is still confirmed by the Orthodox Church..***

Those who do not know their heresies are doomed to repeat them. Ad infinitum, to the ends of the earth in as many ways as there are different people. A very valuable function that the Church serves.

Nice explanation of the Filioque. It is as you say.
