Akhi Rafa,
Rarely have I read such a bunch of nonsense. None of the above is true at all. Yeah, the CoE (in Assyria~Babylonia~Persia) started with Nestorius (a Greek Patriarch of Constantinople!), sure! In 431 AD, yeah. The Council of Mar Isaac in 410 was a fake, I suppose. Or that of Mar Papa in the AD 314 (Synod of Seleucia) - I suppose that was started by Nestorius' great-great grandfather, in Babylon of all places!
Secondly, Lamsa really had about as much to do with the CoE as did Nestorius.
And thirdly, of course we don't teach two "persons" in Christ - we don't even use the word "Persons". We use Qnuma.
What a bunch of uneducated garbage!
+Shamasha
PS - Oh yeah, we despise the Greeks because of what they did to a fellow Greek Patriarch, whom we never even met! (?????) <!-- s:rockedover: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/rockdover.gif" alt=":rockedover:" title="Rocked Over" /><!-- s:rockedover: -->
