It doesn't speak well for your credibility.

You shouldn't lie about what catholics believe. In the book of Revelation, it plainly says all liars will be outside the city. Does that opinion matter to you?

How can bible scripture be considered the infallible word of God, if it is dependent upon a fallible humans' interpretation?

I will tell you as kindly as I can: If you believe there is punishment after forgiveness of sin, then you are believing a heresy. Either the blood of Christ cleanses (as completely as scripture CLEARLY teaches or it doesn't. There is no in between. I have backed myself up with scripture. You have supported your assertions with nothing but your own confused beliefs. If truth matters to you, if you love God, then I suggest you pick up the bible and start reading Romans. There is no condemnation or punishment for those who trust in Christ. Period. Do you really think you can do anything BY YOUR OWN EFFORTS that will gain you merit with God? If that be true, the Christ need not have died - you could cleanse yourself! What a lie that is! I rebuke and reject that lie and I urge you to seek the truth!
