Like Luther’s doctrines of “the Bible alone” or “faith alone”?

= = =

Now, AF, to be exceedingly more fair and accurate . . .

I think if a computer were fairly and accurately programmed to assess inferences . . . and say layers out of inferences . . .

The inferences, extrapolations, assumptions re Mary

are MANY ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE further out from Scripture than the inferences re BY FAITH ALONE.

FAITH ALONE is fairly directly inferred from many specific Scriptures making plain statements about the primacy of faith.

The Mary stuff is air-gel stacked upon air-gel stacked upon fog stacked upon wild assumption stacked upon VERY OBLIQUE AND DISTANT slight mention of something as related as the neghboring GALACTIC CLUSTER . . . maybe.

But the computer would gag on "man is not saved by faith alone ...", the one place in Scripture where the phrase "faith alone" appears.

Just sayin' ....
