“Scripture proof texts are requested from Catholics to back up our position; we provide them and they are simply ignored - re- provided, ignored; asked for, provided, ignored, and asked for again as if they hadn’t been provided!”
I’m surprised that Catholics even request Scripture proofs. My best friend and her hubby (ex priest) have told us many times they don’t believe the Bible generally. If the Pope or a priest dictates something that contradict the Bible, it takes precedence over anything in the Bible. They’re very clear about that.
“...told us many times they don’t believe the Bible...”
Anecdotal information, and false as well, even it was a priest who said it.
Every single Catholic doctrine is backed up by scriptural proof - every single one. Just read for example St. Thomas Aquinas who ALWAYS cites scripture to back up his (Catholic) positions. Not one statement in the Catechism is made without a scriptural back-up - not one. Procure an actual copy, read it, look up the biblical cross-references in the footnotes, and then let me know how unscriptural we are.
The idea that Catholics don’t read and understand Scripture is a myth used by Proetestants to vilify us.
