I am not a Roman Catholic.
What does it matter a word’s meaning in Greek or Latin if the word is not in the Bible?
We don’t speak Greek or Latin. We speak English. An English word has its English meaning. There might be some etymological interest in how a word has come from one language to another, but it has no bearing on what that word now means in the language in which it is used.
“What does it matter a word’s meaning in Greek or Latin if the word is not in the Bible?”
Well, they’re desperate to make something stick. If that means they have to go back to a word meaning no one actually uses or means, they’ll do it. If that means, out of the blue, they’ll bring up something and focus on that in post after post, they’ll do it. And they won’t stop there either. They’ll keep insisting Catholics worship the Virgin Mary even though I, a life long Catholic, and every other Catholic here, flatly state we’ve never met anyone who ever worshiped the Virgin Mary. The truth doesn’t matter to them.
Look at 2303 in this thread. See my last paragraph? It seems clear to me that some just wish to attack the Catholic Church no matter what.
