Insightful view of heresies
Almost prophetic in regards to Islamic resurgence. Certainly open to criticism from Protestant sectors it nevertheless leaves no one wondering what he means. His treatment of Arianism is quite good but gets somewhat bogged down in redundancy of his point. Highly recommended for those interested in a well thought out essay on the five (or was it six) chief heresies in Christian history.
