He can be a reasonable guy when discussing other topics, but whenever the conversation turns towards Christianity, he transforms into a raving nutter.

The creed of 325 in itself does not conflict with the raw Biblical information, the later creeds do.1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.

I think a major difference is that we don't "recite" the BF&M, nor do we require anybody to "hold to it" or to "subscribe" to it. It's a body of work that attempts to define who we are.
I'd bet the vast majority of Southern Baptists don't even know what's in it.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

I should realise that when you engage in behaviour defined as trolling [See the Urban Dictionary: "making random unsolicited and/or controversial comments ...with the intent to provoke an emotional knee jerk reaction] you are not actually trolling but when other people make comments you do not agree with, or like, they are trolling.]
I think you're just jealous because I don't like you as much as I like them.
