laity in Roman Catholicism cannot understand Scripture on their own

Scripture guided by tradition and reason. We are not on our own.

That you have to believe this for your salvation is your mortal sin

It’s not getting across, so i’ll stop here. We are not allowed to commit mortal sin, so we would not follow the pope if he could try to command us to do so. Your sequence of logic there is backwards. Til next time FRiend.

You're appealing to the same thing RCs condemn Luther for.

Which tradition is correct? The ECFs contradict each other.

Now you're left with your own reasoning......think about that.
