Without direction only only has tradition. Many catholic based theological arguments begin and end with tradition... Kind like your appeal to the Pope as some sort of authority figure. (Because it is tradition to view him as such.)
He might know it, but by god he will never admit it.
Quote:And drich is not even the pope. Drich is effecting a strident confidence so as to allow him to ignore holes and deceits in his own belief system. He has zero interest in exposing himself to any exercise which would require him to critically examine his belief system.Maybe that is why you all find it so easy to come up with points and theological arguments that leave me in a tail spin with nothing more to say that my original assertion, leaving me no other option than to attack you personally with unfounded allegations. Oh wait a tick, that is exactly what you've done here.
Maybe it's the other way round. I have questioned my position so well I found it to be unbreakable. So I bring it here and offer it up to you 'good' people to see what you can do with it.
