Thanks for the welcome. I'm just curious though as to how you'd define "heretical". Is it a deviation from the usual teachings? But wouldn't the Anglican church qualify since it's a deviation from RCC? (Which is itself of course deviant from the Orthodox church)

I love Gandhi's quote on this, "I like your Christ, but I don't like you Christians."
Classic.
