Blasphemy. Yes. Definitely. But I fear you are wasting your time. The indoctrination of RC members is astounding, and it’s difficult for logic to break through that. As long as they discount the Bible as Final Authority, it is hopeless unless and until the Holy Spirit convicts.

It never ceases to amaze me how people like you 20-80 years of age think that they are better able to interpret the bible than the doctors of the church who have had 2,016 years to do so.....Protestantism was a scourge on humanity allowing people to believe that they had the authority to interpret scripture as they saw fit....PATHETIC.

There might be the problem. The Bible is there for YOU to read, not to let other TELL YOU what it says.

God has written YOU a letter.................. Will you read it?

We don't interpret the Bible; we read the Bible. It's written to be easily understood.

You say that "doctors of the church" interpreted the Bible. So prove me wrong and the doctors right. Find a Bible and go through it with a fine-tooth comb. What are the chapters and verses the "doctors" found that address infant baptism, praying to Mary, purgatory, the rosary, a pope, confessing sins to a priest, last rites, etc.? Seriously; read the Bible if you believe the Bible.

Protestantism is a "scourge on humanity"? A bit offensive, don't you think? (I'm not even a Protestant.)
