5 Ancient Heresies Alive Today



CORRECTION: In the video, I state that monophysitism is the "official stance of six current eastern Orthodox Churches." I did not mean to refer to the Churches of "Eastern Orthodoxy" but rather the eastern Churches in general (sloppy language.) The Churches in question are actually among Oriental Orthodoxy (technically speaking, "eastern" and "oriental" mean the same thing). Further, I did not mean to imply that these Churches, today, are considered heretical, only that monophysitism is. Over the centuries, the stance of these Churches has become refined and they have resolved many, if not all, of the theological problems. Today, they would not consider themselves monophysite, but "miaphysite."

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
