Bible Note: EdB, What doors? The best I can make sense of what you have said progressively throughout this thread, it sounds like you are against letting people read scripture for themselves, but rather the catholic church was right to tell people not to think about scripture, but rather just let the priests and pope authoritatively declare what it means. It sounds like you are saying we should have never messed with that. Now to be clear, I'm sure that you couldn't possibly be saying that. From what little I know you, I don't think you believe this. So that is why I'm asking, I'm letting you know that you are coming across as this being a possibility of what you are saying. Please correct me, sir. Because I feel confident you must mean something else. You are using so many phrases that we would need to be in your head to know the meaning you assign them. "man invented theologies," "simply following Christ," "Opening doors." And many more terms are things that each individual will fill with their own meaning; this makes your posts in this thread difficult to discern. In Christ, Beja |
