REG, as soon as Newsweek polls and the disobedience of individuals become sources of infallible doctrine, you may have a point.

I pinged nate on the other thread to find out what non-Catholic definition he prefers to use. And one exception does indeed disprove the rule.

REG, as soon as Newsweek polls and the disobedience of individuals become sources of infallible doctrine, you may have a point.

Allow me to quote Quester once again.

"Protestants are united in belief on the essentials of the gospel message."

Do you see anything there which would indicate "infallible" or "required" doctrine? While I may not have worded it exactly the same as Quester it is clear he used the qualifier "essentials of the gospel message". In your haste to find a "gotcha" you took a leap beyond logic.

I pinged nate on the other thread to find out what non-Catholic definition he prefers to use. And one exception does indeed disprove the rule.

An exception to what? A generalization?
