No, claims have been made that individuals interpretations of “plain” Scripture are the most accurate. I clearly demonstrated that is not the case. If Scriptural interpretation were as easy as claimed, why do we have so many non-Catholic Christian denominations?

A person can paste as many chapters or verses as they wish, commenting as to what they think they mean, and one can find any number of people who will disagree. This has been the fatal flaw of Protestantism. With each claiming to hold the truth, someone has to be wrong.

Going back to the original piece, I have demonstrated those who were taught by the Apostles taught the fullness of Christian truth, as well as the truths of the Blessed Mother. This was BEFORE the New Testament was written. Regardless, the Old Testament supports the Marian doctrines, which can be easily proven.

All of these other blind alleys about bad popes, Sola Scriptura, etc., are just that, blind alleys. Believe as one wishes, but belief outside of the teachings of the Catholic Church are fraught with error. I pray for the conversion of all souls.

No, claims have been made that ROME's interpretations of Scripture are the most accurate. It has been clearly demonstrated over and over that is not the case.

... belief WITHIN the teachings of the Catholic Church are fraught with error.

But they get a pass as being 'poorly catechized'.
