“No, you posted lies.”

Nope. Not a single one. But you did.

“Ah, well, that’s what Catholicism teaches, isn’t it?”

Nope. And there you go again.

“So....the Gospels aren’t inspired???”

Oh, so you can’t even read what I posted? Sure. Let’s try again. Show me the verse that says Matthew wrote a gospel. Show me a verse that says that Matthew’s gospel is inspired. Can you? Even one? Nope.

“That’s seriously your position??”

Nope. But apparently you’re more than game to claim it is when it isn’t.

“Then we have nothing further to discuss because we have no common source for Truth.”

In other words you can’t show me the verse that says Matthew wrote a gospel or the verse that says that Matthew’s gospel is inspired.

“There is no “protestant interpretation” by the way.”

Of course there is. That would be the interpretation that only Protestants believe.

“There is what the Holy Spirit directs because He indwells each believer — but, again, I guess I wouldn’t expect a Catholic to understand that because the trust there is in what Catholic priests, bishops, and Popes say rather than what the Holy Spirit says and following His direction.”

The Holy Spirit never directs people to believe falsehoods - like Protestant interpretations. And Protestant interpretations are falsehoods.

“Catholicism only accepts what men within that organization say is the Truth. Such a lie — and so sad.”

The falsehood is what you’re posting. Why do Protestants seem to need to make things up so often?

Better re-read what I posted rather than making stuff up along the way — per Catholic dogma.

On this we agree -— which is why He does not, never Has and never WILL support made up doctrine outside of His Word: no extra-Biblical pronouncements from on high, no dogma instructing prayers to Mary and the Saints, no sprinkling of babies, no purgatory, no salvation by works. His Word is the God-breathed and inspired Word of God (and yes, I can find passages to support this, but if I can — so can you — beginning with 2 Timothy 3:16, John 1:1, ...) and He has declared that NOTHING shall be added or removed from it. Catholicism is a case study in adding and removing things from Scripture. May the Lord reveal their deception so they can know the Truth. Amen and amen.
