A further example of the tripe from this blog:

“Our theologians used the best tool at hand, Greek philosophy, to tease out the real-world implications of what God had told us about Himself, to figure out how we should pray and to whom.”

All Christians had to do was to recall Jesus’ words about who God was and when and how and to whom to pray. He was pretty clear without resort to the confused musings of the philosophers.

Pretty easy to say in 2013. Not so easy in 213. All of the heretics had Scripture to back their heresy. They still do.

Yes...In spite of the fact that God warns us about philosophers and man's wisdom, they claim that those very things are what's needed to know what God says...God says NO...
