“Linguistic acrobatics to confuse the laity and outsiders”

A prominent feature of Catholicism in my view.

Matthew 5:37 37 But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.

Catholics trample this in the extreme. Their vocabulary is more elastic than jello. They throw in some fancy Latin to sound erudite. They will have a mountain of words to explain some position which is an obvious smokescreen to avoid admitting contradiction to Scripture. This especially applies to Marianism but others as well..
