“What they mean is that the Word of God is not simply Scripture, but includes things that Rome has channeled out of some Traditions to be the Word of God. Which is proof that Rome did not rewrite the Bible as Islam claims, for they did a very poor job if they did.”

They are big on claiming the authority of “tradition”, while not having any facts at all as to what was included in the Bible passages that refer to tradition. There are no official Apostolic traditions that they can point to. It is simply a jumping off point to include whatever they want, when they want it.

I’ve asked several. They slink away and never list a single tradition.

Speaking of which, what happened to ol’ terycarl who was going to get back to us with evidence for his claims...????

TC, oh TC? Where are you with that evidence??

Same here.

I've asked these questions of various Catholics numerous times and have yet to receive even an acknowledgment that they were posed.

Just what are those traditions Paul was referring to that he handed down that we are to keep that were not included in Scripture?

How do you know?

How do you know they’re from the apostles, Paul in particular?

How do you know they’ve been passed down faithfully?

What is your source for verifying all of the above?

Please provide the sources for verification purposes.
