So then my only question is for someone to say scripture only then imply a unwritten meaning is that not doublespeak and what they accuse Catholics of?

Interpreting a passage in the context of the whole of scripture, using the norms of language is not "doublespeak". BTW, the principle errors of Catholicism are not "doublespeak"; they are the invention of doctrine that lack scriptural support. The Catholic Church herself admits that much of Mariology lacks scriptural support. Fine. As one of the great reformers stated (paraphrased); once you claim authority for doctrine apart from scripture, the argument is over. The Catholic Church could proclaim that Joseph was sinless. Heck, it makes about as much sense.

Really I missed that update can you send me the official link where the Church did so?
