Sola Cauvin is so fascinating:

1. Interpretations of Scripture that have been the cornerstone of Church teaching for two thousand years are WRONG.
and
2. Interpretations of Scripture by a French lawyer are RIGHT.

Of course, one paradox still remains with sola Cauvin:

1. Did our Lord, Jesus Christ LIE when He said the Holy Spirt would come (which would mean that the Disciples experienced a mass hallucination at the Pentecost).
or
2. Did the Holy Spirit LIE to the Church for 1500 years?

(And keep in mind that EITHER answer means that God LIED.)

Wow...speaking of false dichotomies!

The basic presumption underlying this dichotomy is that the Holy Spirit can only speak to/lead the Body of Christ through heirarchical institutional means (ie, through the institution of the Catholic Church).
