Horsefeathers. I've lost count of the times I've directly supported Catholic doctrine HERE by appealing to Scripture, only to be told solemnly "that's not what those verses mean" ... by people whose own denominations' creedal statements deny the authority of anybody to authoritatively tell a Christian what the Bible does and doesn't mean.

Far more often than not we do NOT say 'that's not what those verses mean'...Usually what we say is, 'that's not what those verses say'...You guys constantly change the words of scripture to fit your theology...

Why would we do that??....we wrote the words in the first place.
