[Notary Sojac]

The doctrines of the Trinity and of the nature of Christ were not generally agreed upon until the councils of the fourth and fifth century.

So I think an argument can be made that the "original" church as it existed prior to that time was not bound by the rulings of Nicaea and Chalcedon.

Imagine how different this thread would have been if the Arians had prevailed.

By the way, I am not LDS and tend to the view that old Joe was making it all up.....

Yet the Arians did not prevail...

Sometimes God knows what he is doing...
