[Joyful Wisdom]

Sorry Mr. Old Reggie did not mean to imply it was you. Throughout this tome, interpretations (usually by Catholics) that are rational but not necessarily true are dismissed for relying on more then just the words in the Bible. For example the whole Jesus' brother debate. The Catholic interpretation is reasonable (not the same thing as being true) but dismissed, because 'brother means brother'. The Catholic interpretation is consistant with Sola Scriptura. Again sorry if I implied actions on your point that is untrue.

There is nothing to be sorry about. I welcome your thoughts.

Now; it is my belief that some Catholic interpretation is consistant with Sola Scriptura. Some, I think, requires a very vivid, extra-Biblical interpretation. That is the reason the doctrines of "Sacred Tradition" and the "Magisterium" were developed. ( SCRIPTURE IS NOT REQUIRED IN ALL INSTANCES)
