In either case, your "interpretation" simply amounts to a denial of the explicit, defined, and infallible teaching of the Church Fathers. ~~ Oh well, explicit, defined doctrine according to your interpretation, at any rate.

Same thing the Liberals say about the explicit, defined Moral Doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church -- "oh, sure, according to you!!"

Bottom line is, just like the Moral Liberals, you are prepared to prevert and deny the Magisterium of the First Century Fathers, simply because you personally do not like what they taught.

Just post what you think is your Magisterium of the First Century Fathers trump card and quit the bombastic BS, OP.

And no, I will not grant you any of you biased and personl/calvinistic interpretations presuppositions. Post your point, then we'll proceed.
