For I know from the writings of the holy Apostle Paul: the Holy Spirit declares that even the angels would be anathema if they should begin to preach another Gospel, introducing some new teaching."

Exactly so: and I ask, has Eckleburg preached another Jesus?

Sure, "double predestination" among others, but I suspect that as a Calvinist, she would deny that there are 7 scaraments, that the Church is defined as the bishop surrounded by his clergy and laity centering on the Eucharist which is the true and actual Body and Blood of Christ, that the Most Holy Theotokos was perpetually a virgin, that the Holy Spirit proceeds only from the Father, that the veneration of icons is an appropriate practice for Christians. Indeed, I suspect she would deny the Incarnation, at least as understood and taught by The Church, and its actual effect on mankind. I don't think I'll both to go any further. These and other matters have been discussed ad nauseum for over 1200 hundred posts. This is a futile exercise, one which proves the wisdom of +John Chrysostoms' advice, no matter which side of this debate one might find oneself. About the only good I can see coming out of all of this is the remarkable expression of unity shown by the Orthodox and Latins here. I'll bow out now.
