When you are your own Pope, nothing else matters. The only thing driving one’s beliefs are the contents of one’s stomach, the softness of one’s bed, the condition of the weather, the emotions of one’s spouse, or the outcome of the horse race at the track.

Some of the most orthodox of Lutherans will admit that the absurd extreme of sola scriptura that you have articulated very well is indeed the Achilles' heel of Lutheranism.

Appreciate the post. There are many who claim sola scriptura except on those particular Scriptural verses which go against their personal beliefs.
