Well, Jesus taught *me* the follwing,
Jesus words from Luke 5: 20-21: And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee. And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?
(Seems pretty clear to me.)
It is indeed ironic that you choose to use the arguments of the Pharisees, not the words of Christ, to support your position.
