But, St. Athanasius and other Church fathers only count when it seems they sound like non Catholic Christians of undeclared or unknown denominations and can be used as proof that Catholicism is wrong and has been wrong since......well, they aren’t really sure of the exact date the Holy Spirit ceased to be her guide and protector, but anyway, yeah, at some point the Church went wrong.
Was it the Immaculate Conception declaration? Well, gee, there were already non Catholic Christians of undeclared or unknown denominations then, so before that what was the beef?
Was it the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist? Well, Paul sure seemed to believe in it, thought they can never admit that. No, that fallacy didn’t come about until after the reformation, right? No wait, there is evidence that it was believed before then. Hmmmmm.....oh it’s just too much to think about right now, when I am so tired and don’t really know what I believe and why I believe it. I just believe it because I’m like Catholic and what was I saying....?
Well, it happened anyway and thank God that He gave us the Bible so we would know that it happened, except for that one little thing.....the canon of Scripture came through a council of the Catholic Church.
Which all goes back to MY ORIGINAL point about the vast differences in Bible interpretation by the various Bible churches.
Protestantism is the product of classical sophists whose chief tool in the fabrication of pseudo-realities is flattery. These sophists, by corrupting words, that fragile relationship between language and ideas, they seek to corrupt the Word. Language is properly ordered when its words express reality with as little distortion and omissions as possible. With this in mind, as you read these posts, it becomes evident who is appealing to the and who is not, who is either a sophist or a victim of sophists and who is not.
Peace be with you.
