Look at you! With each post you and your fellow believers roll up your carts. laden completely down with your doctrines, creeds, dogmas, traditions, etc. I can almost hear the wheels squeaking and threatening to collapse under the weight of your beliefs. Which you need ALL of them, in order to make One point with Each post. And here we stand, one bible each, every day, giving you scripture and showing you the futileness of your “points”. I would say it’s almost unfair. Except for the fact that you choose to pull that cart around like it’s some kind of ‘cart of knowledge’.

"And here we stand, one bible each, every day, giving you scripture and showing you the futileness of your “points”."

The one bible was, by virtue of this divinely-appointed authority, the Catholic Church which determined, preserved and defended the canon of Scripture, presented to you from that same cart. You are indeed enriched by it but are impoverished by the rejection of the other gifts it contains. I pity your emptiness.

The Catholic Church defined the doctrine of the Trinity at the Council of Nicea in 325 A.D. It's one of our "points" on that "squeaking cart", as you put it.
You do believe in the Trinity, don't you? Well, it's nowhere to be found in your Bible. The Church gave it to you, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

By the way, did you know your Bible contains seven fewer books than the one that was in existence and accepted by Christians for many centuries? What gave the "reformers" the right to throw those books out?

Actually, you stand in line giving us errors like the beauty about "Jesus should have called Peter Rock in plain English" and the numerous historical errors and the long list of a pastor's opinions positioned as facts.

Then, of course, when we post scripture to prove one point, your lot don't read it --> we post from the Bible by the way, not an excerpted version of the Bible

Well that may be what it looks like from there.

From here it looks like we get barraged with traditional objections, usually to things we don't believe. And then when we try to answer the objections or to distinguish out what we DO teach from the slanders, we are mocked and our arguments are ignored.

It seems, indeed, like many on your side disdain reason and would rather think what is not true about our teaching than what is true.
