If this discussion is about nothing more than making you feel good about yourself, please let the rest of us know before we waste time reasoning with you.
Many may be able to reason with me, but your sarcastic tone and condescension leave you outside of that company.
It is pointless anyway, as there is little (I would say "no") standing for your position in the Scriptures, and you have already determined to rely upon your traditions... Those same traditions having no weight with me whatsoever.
You will be subjected to the Protestant "insistence that Scripture is the only yardstick of validity", by me and my fellows- A position that offers you no foundation. So why bother?
Have a nice night.
