I will gladly match the authority and and wisdom of my God who inspired the scriptures and instructed me to study them against every Catholic scholar you can name for the past two thousand years. Paul discussed the "wisdom" of your scholars in Rom 1:22 and again in I Cor 3:19. In addition my God is qwuite capable of inspiring a Bible that the common man can understand. Your disputing of this places you in the same category as those of whom Jesus spoke in Matt 22:29. The fact of the matter is that the Bible is so straigntforward and understandable that to misunderstand it you must have the help of a Priest, Rabbi, or Preacher.

If it is so straightforward and understandable, then why do we have so many sects?

You're sure that's how the teams are lined up, are you?

What you really mean to say is that you will accept your own opinion against any Christian who ever lived before you.

Is it any wonder this philosphy is so seductive? It's all about the self.
