*** I will grant that satan did leave out Scripture, but he quoted it as accurately as some Protestant fathers have.

So your response to my straightforward and cheap-shot-free showing that satan misquoted scripture is to compare satan to Protestants. SHEESH!!!***

Read my statement again. I did not compare satan to the general body of Protestants. I said that satan quoted Scripture as accurately as some Protestant fathers have.

I believe that in order to construct a number (most if not all) of Protestant theologies, that Scripture must be misquoted, and significant passages have to be left out. That was a large factor in the Protestant elimination of the Deuterocanical books of the OT.

I, of course, believe the opposite. :) But on the Deuterocanonical books I would like to ask what specific and Uniquely Catholic (or Apostolic) beliefs are found there, but not in what I consider to be scripture? To my knowledge, purgatory is one, but the Orthodox reject that, as we do. (I think they sort of meet you half way, though. :) I can't recall the Orthodox distinction.) Anyway, my working belief has been that the Deuts really do not go a long way in defining our differences because you guys almost never quote them to me. You will quote the Fathers and you will quote what I call scripture, and you will quote the Catechism, but there is almost nothing from the Deuts. I just ask myself: why is that?
