Let's not forget that what is labeled as Orthodox is not orthodox from a fundamentalist point of view. Quran and Sunnah will not lead us astray, but those fragmenting them and not getting in any depth with the language and context can bring their own or cultural problems to those labels. Hanbal was practically the founding Sunni with his list of 50 beliefs that 93 people (an obvious minority) fully agreed with as a basis of faith. تَقِيّ ٱلدِّين أَبُو ٱلْعَبَّاس أَحْمَد بْن عَبْد ٱلْحَلِيم بْن عَبْد ٱلسَّلَام بْن عَبْد ٱللَّٰه بْن ٱلْخِضْر بْن مُحَمَّد بْن ٱ and مُحَمَّد بْن عَبْد ٱلْوَهَّاب بْن سُلَيْمَان ٱلتَّمِيمِيّ could be said to be products of westernization, but neither their opinion or counter to that can be forced according to Islam. Their problems were the focus on the reactionary and the reinvention of the idea of بدعة as rather than changing the principles and between categories of religion to merely doing something new with the idea that it was okay with the early generations, if they were accepted as examples by the Sunnis. Islam doesn't allow to invoke other than Allah for intercession, amulets, charms, and many things, but it never forces that opinion on the ruled. Celebration of birthdays and death days comes from cults that worshiped their heroes or through their heroes.
The priest is wrong. You can never compare his twisted men written book to the quran. Having said that, we muslims should keep everyone under our automatic safe. No matter what they believe in.
