If this were remotly true then no one on the planet could ever hope to read and comperhend anything written unless he himself wrote it. This is obviously not true, meaning the whole of your arguement can be dismissed.
Read the last part of his sentence again, numbnuts. It's basically what I've been telling you for days now, so no wonder you completely misconstrued it.
To directly answer his last sentence. What makes my interpretation any more valid than his? 20 years of study is a good place to start. 12 years of that 20 teaching, and 3 of missionary work, and 5 years of daily debates with people such as your self. Which puts in a place of constantly looking up words meanings and endlessly pouring over the texts defending my beliefs at least 10 different times on 10 different ways everyday.
My question is what makes you think that your (either one of you) interpretation of scripture (seeing as both of you do not believe in God) is on par with mine?
