The Greek is against your position.

Hmm...funny that the Greeks don't seem to agree with you. I guess you know Greek better than 2000 years of Greeks?

I find this argument compelling. Modern Greek scholarship by students with a couple of courses of New Testament Greek does not equal the treasure trove of Greek language tradition from Orthodox Christians.

Another area I find suspect is the propensity of Bible colleges to offer, and professtional clergy to obtain, often by mail (and perhaps now via the Internet) PhD degrees so they can be called Doctor to reinforce their business model or credibility.
