I appreciate this comment.
I have seen your arguments before, most of which are found in the writings of Loraine Boettners "Roman Catholicism" published in 1962, and expounded upon by Chick Publications, Lumen Productions, C.U.R.E., Harvest House, and Bob Jones University Press, to name a few.
I've never heard of Loraine boettner, Lumen Productions, C.U.R.E., or Harvest House. I've heard the name Bob Joes, although I'm not really familiar with anything he's said and I'm slightly familiar with who Jack Chick is although my familiarity is just having seen some of his stuff posted one place or another...but he seems too extreme for my tastes...that is, too much one size fits all.
Most of the assertions have been addressed through various scholarly apologetics, and the original writings of the Council of Trent, and subsequent scholarly endeavors since. Most of the arguments were not based upon the beliefs of the Church, but of beliefs about the church, not based upon the teachings or traditions of the church.
Over the years I've seen quite a bit of discourse on both sides of the issues. Some (from both sides) was valid, some was invalid and much was really inconclusive (in my opinion).
Though I do not agree with you, or you with me, I am glad that you have found Jesus Christ, and wish you a Merry Christmas.
What a wonderful way to finish. That we find ourselves in relationship with Jesus regardless of the path is really the important thing. God bless and Merry Christmas to you as well.
No ... simply the scriptures.
