The newscasters are just ignorant. Maybe Catholics are, too. I don’t know. The Bible is pretty clear on calling NO man Father but God. Call no man Master either. I call what many do, Catholics AND Protestants, smorgasbording the Bible. Take out what you want and make your religion or agenda around that. Sigh.
Well what's left to do when you accept the authority of the Bible, then deny the teaching authority it provides for?
I would have enjoyed being at your church yesterday for "What's his name's Day."
Call no man Master either.
Does this mean I have to send back my master's degree and stop calling male-type personnel "mister"?
I just have this persistent feeling that the normal Protestant, except for Quaker, interpretation of this rule is, "Anyone but Catholics can call a guy 'Father'." Gotta love them Quakers.
