No, no, no, you can’t point to scripture alone for you authority for the Catholic Church. Saying it’s authoritative for one thing but not for another. And still you can’t show where what the apostles called “tradition” is exactly what is taught as “tradition” in the Catholic Church. It’s all double speak by Catholics.

[Petrosius]

Just because Catholics do not ascribe to sola scriptura does not mean that we cannot also appeal to scripture. We believe in scripture, just not the sola part. Nor was I pointing to scripture alone for the authority of the Church but rather pointing out that scripture alone does not support scripture alone. You are the one claiming sola scripture but you cannot point to scripture to support that claim.

[Mark17]

No, no, no, you can’t point to scripture alone for your authority for the Catholic Church. Saying it’s authoritative for one thing but not for another.

Affirmative sir. Some people want it both ways. They think they are allowed to pick and choose. Either all scripture is authoritative, or none of it is. Who gets to choose?

It’s all double speak by Catholics.

Affirmative again sir. It reminds me of something.

Gloom, despsair and agony on me.
Deep dark depression, excessive misery.
If it weren't for DOUBLE SPEAK they'd have no speak at all
Gloom, despair and agony on me.
