Catholics wouldn’t make those comments if they studied scripture instead of Catholicism.

So much for bragging rights about how the RCC gave the world the Bible and are the only ones capable of *correctly* interpreting it.

If what we've seen on these threads from Catholics as a whole is an example of the Catholic church's ability to *correctly* interpret Scripture and pass that knowledge on to its constituents, we're WAAAYYYYYY better off with our own personal interpretations.

I never read as much Scripture in my entire Catholic life as I did within the first couple days of owning my new Bible.

I have learned way more on my own than I ever did as a Catholic either from mass or catechism classes.
