And fear of the authority of scripture is a bad way to go through life.
What were you doing in post 108? I guess I am leaping to the wild conclusion that when you replied to my question about the source of the other posters authority, it implied the claim to the authority to respond with that particular snippit yourself but as you and others have said I have problems and I can’t argue with that.
I have to go for a bit but your comment reminds me of a line from the blues brothers “Fat, Drunk and Stupid is no way to go thru life son.” I may just have to do that until I find a better path.
I don’t think I am afraid of the authority of scripture but I don’t take the claims of individuals to interpret that scripture as authoritative on their own merit. I want something more, much more. I keep looking it but so far what I have found in the One, True, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church satisfies my sense of reason the best.
God Bless
