"I see where your post is a typical Catholic post. Rather than seriously consider what the scriptures are saying, the scriptures are touted as "ridiculous"

I actually see your post as typical of the anti-Catholics who troll these threads and highly atypical of the vast majority of actual Christian Protestants.

It seems contextually, that jacknhoo was stating that the interpretation imposed upon the cited Scripture was ridiculous, not the actual Scripture itself. The problem with the fringe Protestants is that they actually believe that when they impost their understanding and interpretation on Scripture that they have altered Scripture to fit their beliefs and created a new universal reality. The problem is that for the vast majority of Christians that new alter reality is a very recognizable sham.

1) I don't troll threads.

... and highly atypical of the vast majority of actual Christian Protestants.

2) Not according to what the vast majority of Protestants are posting here.

It seems contextually, that jacknhoo was stating that the interpretation imposed upon the cited Scripture was ridiculous, not the actual Scripture itself.

3) There is nothing "contextually" offered when one labels an author as ridiculous while failing to present a reasonable counter-interpretation. Relying upon "this is what the Church tells me" is not a very thoughtful response.

The problem with the fringe Protestants is that they actually believe that when they impost their understanding and interpretation on Scripture that they have altered Scripture to fit their beliefs

4) This could be said for the vast majority of Catholics who believe wrongful teaching is AOK as long as it comes from a group of old men held up in fancy digs.
