“affront to us Christians who actually know and read the scriptures...”
Implying that Catholics don’t know and read the scriptures? That is rather patronizing ...
Did you even read the article? It is completely based on scripture references and the reasoning of scripture scholars at Catholic Answers, who have degrees in the subject. The wording scripture gives us clearly supports the Roman Catholic position and that is what is antagonizing you.
We have free will so feel free to disagree; however- don’t continue to falsely claim that the Catholic position is not scriptural. The interpretations of the scriptures are different; one is correct and one is in error, but the argument that the catholic position is not based on scripture needs to stop because it simply isn’t true.

What’s really strange is the dogmatic adherence to sola scriptura, when there is no scriptural support for it.
Sure it is...Changing words and adding words to scripture eliminates any truth to the statement that that person's view is based on scripture...
That's no different than if I would claim that Jesus said, 'I am one of the ways of truth and life and no one comes to the Father but by me and my mother'; and then claiming the statement is based on scripture...Nada...
