You did say this in post 2301, did you not?
DSC: “The concept of sola scriptura is of and from Satan.”
Let me see if I have this....
Using Scripture as a point of authority is OK, but the concept that referring to Scripture alone as a point of authority is from Satan?
Quix does seem to have a good handle on what your post said.

The concept that Scripture is the ONLY source of authority in the Church is the error of “sola scriptura”. There is no prohibition on referring only to Scripture to answer specific doctrinal questions if the occasion allows it.
It's not necessary to always refer to every possible papal teaching, etc. when engaged in apologetics. Sometimes (or even often, for that matter) a Bible verse/s will suffice.
Catholics believe that Scripture and Sacred Tradition are two parts of the same Deposit of Faith.

No, he doesn’t, and neither do you, as we see from your addlepated attempt to restate my remark.
I really have to get away from all this malice, bigotry, and stupidity. Just can’t seem to take enough showers.
