Dispute the scripture? Dispute the scripture? Really?

No, dispute YOUR interpretation of scripture. Unless you are infallible, your interpretation of scripture is not TRUTH. It is your opinion.

Do you claim to be infallible in your interpretation of any and all verses in the Bible? Or do you think that there are some ideas you may have developed about certain verses which just might be..... (gasp).... wrong?

Take heed lest you fall.

I don’t interpret scripture. I let scripture interpret scripture. You will not see an interpretation by me other than scripture that discounts or clarifies something that has been posted.

The EXACT same arguments Catholics use to justify their magisterium and *sacred tradition*.

All those things you posited to be a problem with DB as an individual can be applied to whole groups or denominations. They are NOT exempt from the same problems with interpretation which an individual is.
