“It is from what I have seen, I am talking rank and file laity, not scholars.”
So am I.
“I know several Catholic scholars as a Medievalist.”
I too am a medievalist - I have a PhD in Medieval History.
“I am not wrong about the verse, the context is clear and you were the one who posted that verse (and the dig at Protestants which was uncalled for) regarding the topic.”
I am not wrong about the verse and the context is clear and the dig at Protestants was completely called for.
“Perhaps you should choose your words more carefully in the future.”
I already choose them carefully - digs included.
Then you are an idiot, PhD or not. BTW, I have a PhD also in Medieval history. Your dig was not needed and it was incorrect. As a historian you should know better - you are letting your biases determine your content and are making Catholics look bad.
