As a Roman Catholic, I believe that I do know the Truth. You are refusing to back up your claim, as a sola Scriptura Christian that the apostles were married. I have given you the opportunity to provide those who believe as I do with what you regard as the truth, from an unimpeachable source, Holy Scripture. You can be as clever as you like or not, but the fact remains that you cannot back up your claim. Admit that or back up your claim on the terms presented or withdraw from the argument on this issue which is, after all, none of your business in any event since you do not belong to the Roman Catholic Church.

However, if you want to dip in and out of Catholic issues discussions without belonging to the Church, doing the equivalent of opportunistic drive-by shootings, you are going to have to expect that Catholics will defend themselves since we have no particular duty to be instructed by those in error especially when they cannot back up their claims from the Scriptures they claim to rely on exclusively. If you think I am being somehow unfair to you in holding you accountable for your statements on your own sola Scriptura terms, that speaks volumes.

OK, look at Mark 1:30 and Luke 4:38. This was about Peter. The rest of the Apostles? I am not sure of. Many were problaby married, maybe some were not. The Apostle Paul was at one time a member of the Sanhedrin, was he not? What was one of the requirements for being in the Sanhedrin? When you get down to brass tacks, all this really doesn't matter a hill of beans. I am only interested in one thing. What is your plan of salvation? After all, when all is said and done, that is the only thing that matters, because eternity is an extremely long time, and no one wants to screw it up do they? Also, you have to keep in mind, the Bible is not intended to be a blow by blow description of history, but was written to point people to Jesus of Nazerath. BTW, down with Blackhawks management, those worthless bums.
