Any other claim is a lie, and that is plain to see.I am not claiming to know what God "meant to say", I am claiming to know of the proper frame of interpretation of what God really did say, and didn't just "mean" to do without doing. To know that, proper hermeneutics and exegesis is required, and you find that in patristic tradition. Not re-interpretations, but a living tradition of interpretation without the discontinuity that would be implied in the kind of reinterpretation chatpilot wishes to initate.
