which kind of undermines the whole infallibility thing

2020-02-03 22:45:24 UTC  

The Roman Catholic Church did

2020-02-03 22:45:38 UTC  

Again, I'm not Roman Catholic

2020-02-03 22:46:05 UTC  

dosent matter

2020-02-03 22:46:19 UTC  

you were the one that claimed sola scritura lead to disaster

2020-02-03 22:46:43 UTC  

and ive never heard an argument against it

2020-02-03 22:47:00 UTC  

scriptura

2020-02-03 22:47:05 UTC  

Neither the Roman Catholics nor the various and sundry sects of Protestantism act in ways consistent with the Scriptures or Holy Tradition.

2020-02-03 22:48:02 UTC  

Well I did. You can confidently point out that the Roman Catholic interpretation is incorrect, but how can you know yours is correct, using just the scriptures as written?

2020-02-03 22:48:15 UTC  

thats a big question

2020-02-03 22:48:19 UTC  

and i have debated quite alot

2020-02-03 22:48:38 UTC  

Arius thought he did. Same with the founder of the Jehovah's Witnesses and so on

2020-02-03 22:48:53 UTC  

Well, I know I cannot answer that question for you

2020-02-03 22:48:59 UTC  

this is the same tactic as atheists being like "there are 2 thousand gods and you think yours is the right one"

2020-02-03 22:49:02 UTC  

so what

2020-02-03 22:49:08 UTC  

so what if people were wrong

2020-02-03 22:49:23 UTC  

But I do suggest reading the pdf I linked. It's worth considering if only for formulating a counter argument.

2020-02-03 22:49:40 UTC  

ok i might read it when i get back from school

2020-02-03 22:49:45 UTC  

Ok

2020-02-03 22:49:51 UTC  

I have to get back to work, lol

2020-02-03 22:50:14 UTC  

God bless, my friend

2020-02-03 22:50:45 UTC  

but alot of what you have been saying is "oh there are a million different interpretations how do you know yours is the right one " this can be used against anything, and we dont accept it when atheists do it

2020-02-03 22:50:53 UTC  

so im not going to accept it when you do it

2020-02-03 22:54:24 UTC  

Well, I guess that's sort of a preamble to the punchline

2020-02-03 22:54:37 UTC  

Which is to say there is a clear and consistent way to determine if the interpretation is correct

2020-02-03 22:55:15 UTC  

the holy spirit guides those that are genuinely seeking

2020-02-03 22:55:17 UTC  

And that is what has the church and all of its consistently holy people throughout a thousand years have agreed upon?

2020-02-03 22:55:26 UTC  

and god forgives us trespasses

2020-02-03 22:55:42 UTC  

for we can never know goodness completely, for only god knows

2020-02-03 22:55:48 UTC  

but we can get into the general ballpark

2020-02-03 22:56:22 UTC  

and this is why catholics sperging about sola scritura is just dumb

2020-02-03 22:56:26 UTC  

they just dont understand it

2020-02-03 22:56:44 UTC  

also sola fide vs works and faith

2020-02-03 22:56:46 UTC  

Real Sola scriptura has never been tried?

2020-02-03 22:56:51 UTC  

Sorry that was

2020-02-03 22:56:54 UTC  

Mean

2020-02-03 22:56:55 UTC  

i try to explain that works come from faith

2020-02-03 22:57:17 UTC  

but they pretend there is a big difference

2020-02-03 22:57:32 UTC  

because they have to dogmatically support church dotrine

2020-02-03 22:57:35 UTC  

doctrine

2020-02-03 22:57:39 UTC  

and cant get over the reformation
