That is exactly right, Rhonda. That is precisely why the bible should not be held as the main pillar of Truth, but rather, the Church should. And that is why we are not sola scriptura.
(Drich will disagree with me on this lol, but that is why I'm Catholic and he's protestant. I can only speak for my own faith.)
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
