WHAT A TIRESOME and terminally foolish STRAW DOG. It is totally absurd to assert that EXPERIENCE (A) IS ARBITRARILY HOLY, RIGHTEOUS AND RELIABLE WHILE EXPERIENCE (B) IS ARBITRARILY EVIL, CORRUPT, USELESS.

Nobody is arbitrarily saying anything is valid or not. it's not arbitrary to use Scripture, which is what it's there for.

It's certainly NOT Biblical. NO ONE has a clue that there even IS such a thing as a BIBLE apart from one's EXPERIENCE of the wood pulp and ink.

The truth of God's word is truth and stands alone as truth regardless of any one person's *experiences* with it.

The Bible isn't truth based on my experience with it. It is truth, period. It is the absolute standard by which EVERYTHING else is to be measured, including feely good experiences.

Y’all are THOROUGHLY MISSING THE POINTS YET again.

Which demonstrates yet again

that I just don’t have the linguistic skills to be sufficiently effective so as to achieve actual communication with y’all.

And the sense of futility is not recreationally even close to fun.
