But however respectfully and thoughtfully, I consider their views - or the views of the leaders of my own church, for that matter - their views must stand or fall on their own their own truth and validity. I must be able reconcile their views with Scripture and with reason.

Didn't you say in post 30 that:

I have no intention of educating myself on the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church, either now or ever.

How do you pass judgment on the "truth and validity" of an idea when you won't even learn what the terms used mean?

I can only pass judgment or decide based on the information I have and my own limitations, mental and spiritual. I feel no need to go beyond that. Should the Holy Spirit lead me to reconsider this, I will do so gladly and thankfully. But I will tell you that I have received no such leading from the Holy Spirit.
