Brilliant response. I'm sorry, tell me how my concerns about the deeply flawed process is perverting the word of the Lord. Please.
You want me to cite some scripture, too? I can do that. What about the Sermon on the Mount--you know, pretty much the foundation of the Christian faith. What does Christ say there?
Matthew 5:38-39
Ye have heard that it hath been said, an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, that ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
That turning the other cheek is not a command to be a doormat, it's pertaining to being attacked for your faith.
I can't pretend to know anything about your Jesuit education, so I can only say they either teach confusion, or didn't get through to you.
No amount of Scripture quoting will help you, because some of the Verses have already been pointed out by Rodney King in post 4. You want to dispute that all Scripture is inspired by the Holy Spirit.
I'll pray for you.
