1. Sola scriptura doesn't say that (for the 3 millionth time)
Yes it does: Either you don't understand what Sola Scripture is, or you don't agree with the doctrine. Read as defined by questions?.org
The phrase sola scriptura is from the Latin: sola having the idea of "alone," "ground," "base," and the word scriptura meaning "writings" - referring to the Scriptures. Sola scriptura means that Scripture alone is authoritative for the faith and practice of the Christian. The Bible is complete, authoritative, and true.
2. You don't have an interpretation...you subscribe to that of the RCC so it is their interpretation is it not?
The Church and bible are witness to one another. When I read the bible, I learn that it says exactly what the church teaches. I listen to my Church, and learn it's all in the bible. Where is the foundation and protector of the truth?
1. The catholic church has more than it's fair share of doctrinal disagreements within it's ranks so you can drop the "unity of the church" argument because it's just not valid.
Of course men within the the Church have had some disagremeents from time to time, but it has never caused changes in it's principles and doctrines in 2000 years. That is testimony to it's true, Apostolic holiness.
Of course, he is a mortal man, but I'd hardly say, Mere. Was Apostle Peter a mere, mortal men or was he the Apostle given the keys of the Church by Christ? I would use the word, holy in place of mere.2. Is the pope himself not a mere mortal man?
