Because the text is very clear and my interpretation does not contradict any other scripture. You simply want to discuss something else because you cannot refute the fact that 1 Cor. 3 is a close prooftext of the Purgatory. Naturally, I am trying to get you to focus on the text we are discussing.
Your rendering is indeed contrary to other Scriptures, and 1Cor. 3 is contrary to Roman Catholic purgatory, which i have worked to get you to see.
>omitting contradicting ones<
I explained all the seeming contradictions to you. If you still have questions, please point out where there is a contradiction. It should not take a dissertation to point it out.
I have pointed out constantly, and summed it up in Purpose, Place, Period, Persons, Possessions, Method and Results, all of which you have vainly attempted to reject, as is manifest for all to see, and now its time to let others judge unless you want more reproof. You can even go get another Roman Catholic and i will debate this with him — if he agrees with you.
You have worked, but I don't see you succeed.

It is an open thread. If you'd rather debate with someone else, you find him.
