You can posit all you want, but this isn’t the only time it’s leadership has “disappointed.”
I don’t know why the both of you seem to have such a problem believing that God uses fallible men to teach truth.
Were the authors of Scripture sinless? I don’t think they were. But they were used by God in an even greater way than occurs today! The written word of God is closed, but even THAT was written by fallible men.
Somehow though, the notion that, today, God would keep a few of these fallible men from just teaching error (which is LESS than the Word of God itself) is an anathema? Satanic? Cultish?
Do you believe in miracles? Really?
