“You..


Looks like YOU are punting on my direct challenge. Ergo, you can’t meet it, and are now actively begging me to restate what has been stated dozens of times, in the vain hope you’ll string me along with your red herrings and no-nothing assertions until we forget about it. Go ahead and indulge in whatever victory fantasies you enjoy. I’ll not repeat myself any further unless you produce evidence for “Pope” Gregory’s excommunication for not holding the apocrypha to be inspired.

That’s it! Finished! Finito! No more messing with the troll!

If you believe that St. Athanasius is authoritative, why are you not Catholic?

Is he only authoritative on this one issue?

I have not read all these posts but see here , and also know that RC polemics on the canon have been refuted e x t e n s i v e l y

Including appeals to the LXX and the Vulgate, and the canon supposedly being indisputably settled before Trent, and the Jewish canon and thus the Protestant canon not having ancient support, and the logic that since we affirm Rome's NT canon and that of Athanasius (though he recognized no other formal canon of the Old Testament than the Hebrew one), then that means we should submit to the rest of Rome's teachings, which logic effectively nukes the church.

And in which threads specious RC attempts at damage control are also exposed.
