Given your (the RCC) position on authority, should you not restrict your comments on theological discussions to either quoting Scripture from the approved RC translation and / or quote a pronouncement by the Magisterium?

That is exactly as I have done on this thread. No position I have taken deviates from what has been taught by the Catholic church. The reason I keep repeatedly asking for his authority is because there is no weight in an argument offered from personal interpretation as he keeps doing. There is no one to back up his assertions save himself and that is not good enough.

Perhaps you missed my point.

When you offer ANY discussion, paraphrasing or explanation of the Bible or Magisterial Tradition that goes BEYOND a DIRECT VERBATIM QUOTE, you violate your own dictum against private interpretation.

Do you understand my point even if you don't agree with it?
