Hey, you were the one who called out the author for saying something he didn't say.

Deal with it.

Actually, the author did say it:

"And for those of us who have studied history, how could we forget the unjust power plays from the Popes of Christmas past? When the majority of Christendom doesn't know their right from their left when it comes to the Bible, should we just leave this one up to the self-appointed experts of Rome to solve this translational and interpretative puzzle?"

Now I also don't believe the pope is self appointed. I believe he was appointed by the bishops who were appointed by the bishops ... who were appointed by Jesus himself. So I think the author is wrong on that part. But on the other hand being legitimately appointed for a task doesn't necessarily make you any good at it, and the author makes a pretty good argument on this point, in my opinion.

Turns out, you were the one that can’t read. In all the Bible study you have done - both you and the author this piece missed out on the meaning of the word “Christian”.

Sorry, they never deal with it since they are too busy working their way to ‘eventual salvation’ ... if they're good enough and do enough of what THE SELF APPOINTED DICTATORS in ROME put upon them. So Nicolai-tan that.
