    And before you ing reply with some dumbass retort, don't come at me with "rules" as to positions. Fact is you still can't prove there isn't a god.

    I can't disprove or prove there isn't a God. That's what Agnostic means. I'm not hedging . I'm just not siding with idiots.

    So you'll be crawling to a mosque at the end then

    You're actually going to persist on this "mosque/muslim" tact for me, Blake? First, the Winester won't quote my in his response, then peeg s with my & now you with this. I never figured you 3 for such pedestrian behavior. I looked up to ya's.

    Frankly, I'd always thought, even concerned that you all were better than me. I was mistaken.

    You will, when it serves only you.

    You must proselytize, bomb. You can't just take from God. You must give, pass His word & teachings.

    ADDENDUM:::I was walking a distance from my car to the bowling alley a few months, feeling sorry myself, I'd hung my head, ruminating as you've seen me do here. A kid came out the back of a pizza joint on the strip mall I was cutting thru. He was black and he watched me for a few seconds before he approached me. I wasn't alarmed because he was in a uniform. So, I slowed my pace and we crossed paths. He handed me a "business" card. It was a card for Jesus, an invite to read His word.

    I didn't know that when he handed it to me. I stuck in my pocket, no words were spoken twixt us. I just put my head back down and kept walking. In the bowling alley I got a cold drink, sat down to watch the bowlers and remembered the card & pulled it out.

    He proselytized the Cubster.

    you can't put me into a box tbh.

    as well, you can't be Jewish unless your mother is or you convert which i never did and never intend to do.

    am i christian? no. am i agnostic? no. am i atheist? no. however, i do believe in a higher being/energy.

    W

    Lol "w"

    I'll accept that you interpret "sacred scripture is the word of God" as something different from those words

    There are a lot of different standards and qualifications for membership. Ultimately, it's up to the church to decide. Given that the Bible is open to interpretation and given that, as we established, most Christians don't believe the Bible is to be taken literally, it shouldn't be surprising that most churches don't require literal and 100% adherence to Biblical doctrine.
    If a church decides to go Methodist then it's implied they are conforming to the universal standards of being a Methodist.

    I get that many non-denominational Christians nowadays are trying to get away from that word "literal" because they realize how stupid much of the literal Bible is. They want to be able to have wiggle room out of the awful laws and barbaric acts of the Old Testament.

    That's why I'm clearly stating "denomination" which the word "doctrine" goes with unless the individual church says different.

    Sounds like they are just hedging their bets. " hey, I dont feel like following the instructions in the owners manual, but I'm gonna claim I believe just in case that afterlife is true..."
    Exactly

    The W is capitalized

    You still don't know what the pope means when he references the Word of God. It isn't the bible.

    lol It's all explained in your own link if you read it. You'd understand if you took my advice to learn what the Word of God means to Catholics.

    and stop editing the sentence down further and further

    "In fact, Sacred Scripture is the Word of God in that it is written down under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. "

    ^ the full sentence doesn't support your premise. Once again, Word of God is not a reference to words on paper.

    Honestly, I'm not going to play Sunday school teacher here, I'm not even Catholic. Your self chosen task was to prove that the Catholic church believes the bible is the literal word of God. I'm just trying to help you not make the same mistake over and over but clearly it's not working.

    You can keep trying but you were right to throw in the towel the first time because you are wrong and that is not what the Catholic church believes.

    I'm not gonna play grammar teacher here either. I'll just have to disagree with your anecdotal interpretation.

    Unless you want to lay out your idea of what laws and stories are literally true in the Bible and what aren't.

    I'll go ahead and accept your thread ejection coming in 3...2...

    Now stop deflecting and prove that you know more about what the Catholic Church believes than the ing Pope.

    Or just admit you are wrong. Which you are.

    You didn't define "sacred scripture" in either of those two wordy posts.

    Those words are the Pope's words, not mine. Define those words or I'll just put you down for blathering arrogant ejection.

    You're flailing now but at least you've moved on from confusing The Word with words on paper, progress.

    You pick a Christian denomination you might snag me on, and I'll post the text plus link.
    Still waiting. Show me that the Catholic Church believes the bible is literally the word (not The Word) of bible God.

    It's logic. If you're gonna say we'll all be praying to God at the end for insurance, then might as well cover all the religious bases.

    I already did. Sorry this doesn't say what you think it says:

    Here's a quote you left out from that same speech from 2018:

    "In fact, Sacred Scripture is the Word of God in that it is written down under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit."

    https://www.learnreligions.com/pope-...of-god-3970724
    I'm not flailing. I'm specifically asking you in plain terms what you think "Sacred Scripture" means. It's even posted in capital letters.

    But hey, go to sleep in comfort with that W you gave yourself.
