Quote:Protestants might respond by saying Catholics are confusing correlation with causation. Catholics might then reply that Protestants mistakenly assume the correlation is not a case of causation.
Of COURSE the two sides will argue;the issue is differences not the 'why' of the difference
Quote:I'd say this is another instance of a lack of clarity in a biblical text resulting in contrary interpretations of the text. Would you say the same?
No,I'd say the protestant view is idiotic and self serving. Don't worry,the Catholics have been doing the same thing for nearly 2000 years. EG their unique scriptural interpretation for the intercession of the Virgin Mary and the saints, indulgences (as a still extant concept) and papal infallibility, are really creative.
I hope you realise this is all academic to me; I don't believe in god(s) , nor do I believe in revealed truth of any kind. (due to the lack of credible evidence)
