Sola Scriptura has an implicit arrogance to it. Back in 2003 there were threads here about evangelicals wanting to send missionaries to Iraq.

Sure.

We need American evangelicals to bring some old time religion to an Iraqi Christian church that was founded by a Babylonian Jew who went to Jerusalem for Passover and stayed for Pentacost where he heard Peter preach about Jesus the Nazarene.

It's a bit like the American Presbyterians who went to Egypt in the 19th century trying to convert the Copts whose church was founded by St. Mark the Evangelist.

The same St. Mark who wrote the gospel.
