If you want to claim to quote me then please do, but that means actually quote me, don't paraphrase me to put words into my mouth. Show me where and in what post I ever said you had to use sources I accept. I may have claimed you needed to provide sources to show where you got these ideas and I may have even held the option of not accepting those sources, but I NEVER said you had to use sources I accepted. Of course it helps to convince people if you use sources they accept but I just want people to know where others are coming from and see how weak or strong their sources are. If you think that is arrogant then I am sorry but I am not about to change in that search.

As far as my sources go I would be arrogant if I relied on just the statements of the Catholic Church as you claim - but I do not. Your accusation is patently false. I do not in any place in this thread make an appeal to the RCC as a source. I offer scriptures and then reason from them, in each and every case.

The verses I quoted were primarily from the New Testament which was written in Greek, regardless of what your modern Jewish teachers want to claim several thousand years after the fact, so although I have studied a small amount of Hebrew no amount would aid me in interpreting or translating the word of God in this case.

Yes and since it was the Church which choose the table of contents of the New Testament that makes perfect sense, but that would have been the case if they had been choosing from a set of texts in Hebrew too so your argument is null.
