"Still no answer from any Protestant regarding the authority that acted infallibly in determining the canon of Scripture"

- - -

"I both answered your question and then illustrated it appropriately. God is the ONLY infallible authority that exists in heaven or on earth. The authority you are clacking is as infallible as Balaam’s donkey. ...and ranks up there with the rooster who believes his crowing causes the sun to rise. "

Well then, let's get specific -- did God proclaim which writings belonged in the "New Testament" in a booming voice from the mountain?    Or, did God use a non-human animal (like your ass) to proclaim which writings belonged in the "New Testament"?    Or, did God actually choose, in His Holy, Sovereign Will, to simply use human members of His Church (some of God's children) to proclaim (in official Church Councils which were guided by the Holy Spirit) which writings belonged in the "New Testament", those Councils being held after all the books of the Bible had long since been completely finished being written?

(Am going out right now, but will try to check back for a response later if I can.)

God always uses fallible humans when he can’t find a faithful donkey!

Yet they bray louder than the donkey and proclaim themselves infallible!
