But don't you think that, in some cases, the Romanists have deliberately chosen not to be precise -- when the Core Text (that is, the Bible) would (according to the Reformers) seem to demand as much?

Well, yeah. We all have gaping blind spots in our own chosen traditions. I've done it myself - and I bet you do too.

Yes, but I'm quite vain.

So, at best, I try to remain open-minded enough to allow others to point them out to me. At least those whom I either love, respect, or both.

(No, it's not a perfect system, but it's the best that I'm personally able to manage).

Best, OP
