No amigo, it is the self-attestation of the Scripture itself that I trust

Self-attestation to oneself? Ever heard of solipsism? It's akin to Gnosticism. It's a self-worship of kinds. The self is the alpha and the omega of reality and truth.

The fathers merely interpreted revelation and where they interpreted correctly I agree and where they misinterpreted I throw it out with the garbage

Because your self knows what they interpreted correctly and what they misinterprted? You know better than they do? Yet they were trustworthy enough to put that Bible together for you? SDomehow they knew what was scirputre, but some just didn't know how to interpret it correclty!? Oh boy!

“”Because your self knows what they interpreted correctly and what they misinterprted?”

It’s called modernists scripture scholarship.

They look to themselves as being the pillar and foundation of truth.

In other words.. It’s the prideful worship of self mind!

Off to Mass.
