How is it possible to have a dialogue with these ground rules...?

Teaching that is Biblical is right; that which is not is wrong.

And who do you say is the final arbiter of what is Biblical? We have provided many quotes and supports for the Catholic position and yet you tell us the Church is wrong and unbiblical. Why don't you stick to discussing the issues instead of saying we are wrong because we are members of the universal (Catholic) Church.

Then you bring in the un-Biblical dogma of the Lord supposedly founding the error-laden RCC.

Isn't this entirely the issue? If the RCC is the Church founded by Our Lord then She is the One appointed by Christ as the "bulwark and pillar of truth" (1 Tim 3:15) Who is to "teach the principalities". If She is not, then we would have to look outside of Her to another... but who? Whose interpretation of Scripture or whose congregation can be relied upon to teach the principalities as the bulwark and pillar of truth? Since there is no agreement among those who take private revelation from the Holy Spirit and each insist in their accuracy, what are we to do and what are we to teach?

RCs and proddys have a HUGE disagreement on the alleged founding of the RCC by anyone in the Bible. The universal church is catholic, not Catholic. The latter is the RCC, to distinguish it from the former.

I’ve never said anyone was wrong because they are RC. I’ve posted tons of documents and links showing why certain RCC dogma and doctrine is wrong. I’ve found very few RCs in this this forum willing to even look at most of those.

Speculation and supposition of ex-post history is all the RCC has to claim it’s foundation of Christ on the apostle Peter.

Don’t see how you and I can agree on much, if you insist on proclaiming that which the Bible is silent on, or which rests on twisted interpretation.
