A summary of the Orthodox position on the Holy Scriptures:

1. Protestants don't know what the scriptures really state since they are filled with bias and error. (No mention if the Catholic's Doury-Rhiems version is accurately translated.)
2. Every version that Protestants use is wrong but the Orthodox won't tell what the correct text is, although the KJV is pretty close.
3. One can only understand the scriptures through the Greek, and only the Greek text except Orthodox who can't read Greek.
4. The Orthodox has the true version but after 2100 years hasn't got around to translating it yet. (Please ignore fact #1)
5. The Orthodox knows what is the true word based upon Tradition. (Please ignore fact #1 and #2.)
6. The Orthodox sing and read the scriptures during Mass. (Please ignore fact #1, #2, #3 and #4.)
7. Only the Orthodox understands Greek.

And I'm suppose to be impressed by this argument?

let me translate your comments into reality:
1. angry illiterate west europeons figured they were the center of the world.
2. their angry decendants thought so also and fragmented their 'churches' from 5ish to 20000+
3. protestants think that english is God's language and everything else is irelellevent.
4. protestants ignore the greek original text because their pope (themselves) says its superfluous
5. protestants hold fast to traditions like Christ is really a book, and headcovering isn't needed because it clashes with church tradition
6. protestants do just about everything except worship God in their 'meeting houses'
7. protestants understand Christ better than everybody because they're infailable Popes with the sole authority to decide scripture, therefore making the original texts superfluous to their divine reason.

Am I supposed to be impresxsed by a bunch of angry west europeon churches founded by illiterates who thought themselves personally superior in matters of scripture?
