Ah, we have Bibliolatry; the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible

THERE WE HAVE IT! Finally! A definition of what the RCs decry as "Bibliolatry."

"Bibliolatry equals believing the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible!"

No wonder Rome is in such tatters, embroiled in sexual and financial scandals while losing members left and right.

Rome does not believe the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible. (I've got to bookmark this post for the next time some RC apologist denies they ever said this.)

He did not say that. You have yet again grossly distorted a (pointedly partial) quotation.

Your reputation for veracity is Titanic.

***THERE WE HAVE IT! Finally! A definition of what the RCs decry as “Bibliolatry.”

“Bibliolatry equals believing the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible!”***

Once again we have the good Dr. E. cutting and pasting out of context, just the same as she does with Bible passages. Why not post the whole sentence, Dr. E.?

I said in a moment of sarcasm: Ah, we have Bibliolatry; the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible and the Catholics suppressed it.

And so what does the learned Dr. E. post? Ah, we have Bibliolatry; the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible. And she promises to bookmark the post as abridged for further propagation.

Does your lack of intellectual honesty extend to your theology? I suspect that it does. It does explain to me how such an intellectually advanced individual would gravitate to such a despicable theology such as the Presbyterians would advance.

***No wonder Rome is in such tatters, embroiled in sexual and financial scandals while losing members left and right. ***

The Catholic Church is one of the fastest growing churches in the world. The Presbyterians on the other hand are losing around 5 percent per year world wide the last time I looked. Care to comment on that?

You probably don't want to use that bookmark. If someone actually linked back to the post you carved that quote from, they might get the idea you are as loonie as the Black Knight.

To avoid "putting words in another Freeper's mouth" and thereby "making it personal" - when you are paraphrasing another Freeper be sure to indicate that it is a paraphrase and not a direct quote.

For instance, "Bibliolatry equals believing the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible!" [paraphrase]
