Man you are really reaching here, aren’t you.

As I grew up in a farming community I am familiar with milking cows. The two legged, or one legged stool of which you speak is not a stable place to sit.

When milking a cow, one would use it as a brace to lean in to reach the udders.

One could not sit upon such a stool without falling over, unless they braced themselves with their own feet.

You have perfectly illustrated my argument, albeit without actually trying to do so.

The stool which you describe depends on MAN and not on that which he uses as brace. And the MAN is not sitting on the stool, but using his own two legs to maintain his stance.

Whereas a three legged stool is designed to safely and stably bear a person sitting upon it.

Without MAN, your stool falls to the ground.

That’s right. Without man there would be no “church”. And there is no way I would make the other two legs you talk about equal to God or His word.
