I really do not wish to debate any more catholics with Scripture.

I'm a former Protestant, BTW.

I thought my argument suggested, if it did not prove, that the way some Protestants argue about tradition is self-contradictory, that it relies in fact on a traditional and by no means merely Scriptural interpretation of Scripture.

Certainly there's no obligation that I know of requiring you to 'debate any more catholics with Scripture," but it might be important to deal with the concept that many who claim to be Sola Scriptura in their methods are in fact following what they themselves would call "traditions of men."

Sola Scriptura is exactly what it is. To say that it is following the traditions of men is ridiculous.
