And of course part of the thorniness of the question of Milton's
theology is the problem of trying to derive a theology from a poem,
and that one's theology can change over time, etc. Adding to the
thorniness is similarity of language between trinitarians and
non-trinitarians: in practice, people on both sides of the issue tend
not to use the precisely technical language required for a
non-ambiguous statement of dogma. That language is generally reserved
for creeds.

PS Thanks for the good news, Fr. Logsdon. It's been 35 years since my
last confession and don't even get me started on my sins. Maybe a few
thousand Hail Marys with a couple hundred Our Fathers?
And thank you for reminding us that the Catholic Church does attempt
to be genuinely catholic.
