get the net, and reel it in. This one’s caught...Yeah, the Church is too literal in one of your arguments and not literal at all in the other; and, ultimately and at the same time, the Church doesn't believe the Bible is true because it doesn't take it literally.
That's a real keeper of an argument there. You win a stuffed flounder for that one.

THAT is your Church. Exactly. Declaring what they want to be doctrine as LITERAL. And rejecting as "vague" or not literal the things in the CC that would blow a hole big enough to drive the Pope mobile straight out of Rome. In a hurry. The RCC takes the parts of the Bible they can USE. Period. The rest is not to be taken "literally".
a stuffed flounder? It's much better than sour grapes, D-...
