I am a liberal Christian. However, abandoning orthodoxy, tradition and exploration of those traditions seems more naive and intellectually false then approaching Orthodox views and restudying what led to them and why and seeing where those views clash with modern awareness and insight that is not solely derived from secularism.Yes, but Anglican beliefs don't exhaust what it means to be a Christian. There are plenty of Christian groups that do not accept creeds as part of their religious and spiritual life.
You call yourself a liberal Christian but the idea that Jesus taught all the propositions in the Nicene Creed is intellectually naïve.
Nor was I implying that Anglicanism exhausts Christian understanding or awareness. I said what I did, cause I don't think anglicanism would be a good fit for the OP'er. There are traditions such as Unitarianism that might be a far better fit then a group that relies on the orthodox interpretation of the Creeds.
As for what Jesus taught that led to the Creeds, maybe rather then attacking me cause I happen to hold to an orthodox view and you don't, you might want to re-read the gospels again and see what you think.
