Are they spoken of in the scriptures??? No??? Then they are no one of significance...

Well that's just scary.

Athanasius was the greatest champion of Catholic belief on the subject of the Incarnation that the Church has ever known and in his lifetime earned the characteristic title of "Father of Orthodoxy", by which he has been distinguished ever since.

Arianism just about conquered the world.

From an historical perspective alone it's important to know about these men and their beliefs so that we don't fall into the same traps all over again by reinventing the heretical wheel.

Well that's just scary.

And he has reproduced, that is scarier.

Athanasius was the greatest champion of Catholic belief

Anthanasius had access to no more scripture than is available today...He may be a champion of your religion but your religion is not the champion of millions upon millions of people...

There are no doubt many bible teachers whom I respect who also agree with Anthanasius in some or even much of what he says...But he is not my champion...My champion is Jesus Christ...And outside of Jesus Christ, there is no champion of his church...

We have the perspective of Jesus Christ to guide us in the traps of heresy...So you believe what Athanasius claims...How do you know he is right???
