The church fathers spoke with a corporate voice, which they conflated with the voice of a deity. The same thing happens over and over today in a multitude of organizations. The corporate voice wants to correct the voice of the tradition of the people. Think of Michael Bloomberg telling people not to drink soda.
The tradition of the people is actually really slow to change. It's probably represents an underlying genetic landscape of a nation and its environment. For all we know, it could be the voice of the gut bacteria of a people. The corporate voice is really pretty feeble and reedy in comparison.
