I have found the same.
I remember when I sat down with a catholic who took his religion seriously and he accused me of being a heretic. So I asked him, "What is the heresy?" And he said "You teach Jesus was created." I said "Nonsense, we teach no such thing. Next?"
he was dumbfounded. So he asked me what we teach about the creeds. I said "Creeds are an abomination, meaning, the Lord thinks they stink." He knew what "abomination" meant so he asked some further questions. I said, "Much of what the creeds say is right; a little is wrong, and sometimes only some people's interpretations are wrong. However, the Lord never meant for creeds to replace faith." He agreed with that.
He then went over two or three creeds and I pointed out the parts we don't necessarily agree with, or where it depends on what those words actually mean to the reader / author. The Nicene Creed isn't that bad. Some interpretations are fine. Some of the other creeds are nice but have one or two points that are a bit weird. In the end, he couldn't find the heresy because we don't really teach anything antithetical to the Bible or even church tradition.
The "heresy" we are accused of is always a lie invented against us by people who can't take the time to actually read the Bible.
