I'm a protestant who's not 100% sold on Sola Scriptura, but a whole host of these things are making bad assumptions and are flatly false.

NO protestant I know thinks that the Bible is the ONLY way to teach about God, or the ONLY things that can be known about God, they just think that it's the only thing we can know for sure, and the only thing that is truly important, or else God would have let us know through scripture. A whole host of these arguments seem to assume the opposite.

Good observation. Most of time, when you see "sola scripture" it is a Catholic trying to put a presupposed boundary around non-Catholics. (See post #478) They also try to get you into defending Luther or his views. While I believe he had a lot right, he was a fallible person. Besides, no Protestant I know studies to be like Luther, we study the Bible to be like Christ.

Sincerely
