Well, it isn't necessarily wrong.
Seems some one is working hard to put Jesus some place He don't belong.
Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Joh 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Joh 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

The HU is constructed to the pagan/gnostic concept of the divine being superior and totaly good while the material (including human) be inferior and totally bad.
Not only that. Even in the supose that there is actually two natures, divine and human, there is not any scriptural support for those suposed natures being in independent co-existence.
And even worst. The HU contradict the previous creeds of Nicene and Constantinople. Were those creeds wrong or is it that the HU is wrong?

I agree: the Biblical and historic understanding of the Lord Jesus being wholly God and wholly man in two distinct natures gloriously united in one Person, is not up for negotiation.

I know you will not negotiate the HU. It doesnt mean that is correct.
The HU was fabricated in the Chalcedon Council. At that Council it was declared the HU and was declared that was ilegitimate to ponder or to analice the HU. The Chalcedon Creed declare the imposition of the HU without any chance of being stidied. Whio ever dare to think over the HU was excomulgated and loos the salvation. That not for contradicting the HU, only for puting thots to it.
That atitude lasted until today. The HU is a non negotiable doctrine that will not be proven right by mean of arguments or studyng.

...but the Bible speaks of the two natures in the Person of Christ. You apparently want to deny it. Well, I can't help you.
(SerÃa como tratar de decir que vive todavÃa Aparicio Méndez; siempre se podrÃa negar la verdad.) (For Anglophone readers, a statement about a well-known Uruguayan that is demonstrably false, however much one could try to assert it.)

Falso. Andá.

The Man who died at the Cross never ceased to be God in human form, and a man is now in the glory in His rightful place at the right hand of His Father, to Whom He is the only begotten Son.

There is in fact a difference between these two men. (It is important to get the captions right, not wrong.)
Just as there is a difference between the spirit of man and the Spirit of God. (Not the same sort of difference, but the difference is vast, not “trivial’.)

I think you agree with my point that there is indeed a difference. And I am saying that big, inherent differences should be acknowledged.
As General Goyo Alvarez (who, despite his reputation, saved and preserved the Uruguayan party system) said, there is always a difference between Peñarol and Nacional, and there is always a difference between Colorados and Nacionalistas; the difference is inherent.
And I am suggesting that the Bible says there is a difference between the spirit of created man, and the Spirit of God the Creator. The difference is inherent. Not the same difference as in the examples I gave. But the difference is vast and inherent.
And tomorrow evening I have to go out, amigo.

No, the HU is not Gnostic. It does not state that the material is evil, nor is it implied. There are two natures in Christ, unified and indivisible. That is precisely why we can say that he is truly God and truly man. If we say the two mixed and became one nature, then we could not say that.
