Dancing on the edge

Sorry, this post is about dancing only in the metaphorical sense.  I read alot and the more I read, of the serious theologians, the more I realize that so many of these men are so close.  They are, metaphorically speaking, dancing on the edge of Orthodoxy, but, for some reason, are not willing to dive in and embrace the historic faith.  I am thinking that much of this apprehension is based on a faulty ecclesiology.  If one begins with a right understanding of who and what the church is, they will end up Orthodox.  Some may balk at this, but think of what is being said here.  The church is the body of Christ. The church is the people of God.  The church is that body that God communes with, in a way even greater than what Adam and Eve enjoyed prior to the fall.
It's all about communion with the Triune God.  There is nothing more important, so we need to start from the right place.
