To what extent is the indeterminacy of, say, experimental findings in a scientific subfield an indictment on science? If it's not, how in God's name does your brain convince you that indeterminacy in a particular area of theology an indictment on religion?
It's confused responses like these that ask to be ignored.
How insular is your schism, are you unaware of how important that issue is, to catholics...for example? I suppose I could see why you don't see it as a core issue.....it's only a comment on the legitimacy of their entire faith organization.......it's only -self-stated- as a necessary part of their faith that they decide in favor of the church, and against the proposition in question.
The other two, then..any comments there? Will we be resolving any of these discrepencies this evening? You seem to think I'm indicting religion, or that this is even my goal, but it isn't. It's the ignorance and disrespect you're showing to christianity that's being indicted...in this thread. I guess you're just the fruit by which I'll know the tree.....
(that, would be an indictment of religion, btw)
It's precisely because I know the Catholic stance on the issue that I know the issue is not core doctrine. If you actually knew what you were talking about you wouldn't be saying the things you are. Like, what in the world is a "faith organization" and how is the legitimacy of Catholicism predicated on sola scriptura? WTF kind of babble is this?
The more you post the clearer it is: you have no idea what you're talking about.
Are there any Catholic posters here?
