1John 2:
[8] Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.
[9] He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
[10] He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
[11] But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.
[12] I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
[13] I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.
[14] I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.
So we see that he speaks only in differentiating the generations, not to elevate the stature of the (uncapitalized) fathers.
To imply differently is what I call deception.
"A little CONTEXT blows your theory away... he speaks only in differentiating the generations, not to elevate the stature of the (uncapitalized) fathers."
What do you mean by "my theory"? I didn't write any theory. Quite the opposite: it was perfectly customary and unremarkable in Apostolic times to call older men "fathers". That's very much my point. I sure didn't say anything about elevating the stature of the "uncapitalized" fathers.
So again and again (and again), you're refuting things I didn't say.
(By the way, when you're trying to discern the meaning of a text, it helps to know just a little teeny bit about the original language. The Greek New Testament was written in all capital letters, without spaces, punctuation, accents or diacritical marks. "Uncapitalized" is completely irrelevant in this context: it was all capitalized.)
