Do you want to turn this into another dissection of Sola Scriptura versus Catholicism?

I do not. It was an observation. I do happen to believe the Thief on the Cross, who is named in the Catholic tradition, was saved by Christ and Him alone.

But thank you for the respectful discussion. I'm proud to stand alongside my Catholic brothers and sisters as we fight together for social issues that are important to us both. I don't happen to believe, though, that Salvation is open only to Catholics. If I did, I would be Catholic.

As always, peace be with you both.

Neither does the Catholic Church.

Peace be with you.

And note that the misunderstanding or strawman often resorted of SS as being restricted to formal sufficiency, and as excluding anything but Scripture for salvation, and the supposition that Scripture must include a TOC, and resolve all disputes, is invalid and has been refuted.
