The author of the article discusses how the church has grabbed onto those ideas and pretty much literally overrun the church. She mentions doctrine, theology, catechetical truths and goes on to elaborate:
Doctrine does not box God in. Rather it helps us understand him clearly and rightly. Without it, we are doomed. Doctrine does not limit God. Rather it gives us a framework within which to experience and understand God’s immensity. Without it, we are unanchored. Doctrine does not reduce God. Rather it provides an elegant space of sacred intellect that allows us to stand in awe of Him. Without it we ourselves become smaller than we already are.
