Okay with you if I claim you worship nature?No kidding?I should report you for this, but I'll just consider the source.Okay, let's get this straight:
- I worship the Bible?
Only if you think that only one translation is the "real" one.
Barbarian, regarding the bibolatry of KJVO:
Worshiping man's revision of God's Word seems more than a little foolish to me. But that's your choice to make.
Okay with you if I claim you worship nature?
If so, you're also arguing that St. Paul worshiped nature. Romans 1:20, you know.
Barbarian chuckles:
It's not
the Catholic Bible. In fact, most Catholics use others today.
It's just that Catholics, like most Christians, don't worship any version of the Bible. It's the word of God, but it's not God.
I should report you for this,
I don't think it's out of bounds to make that point. Few Christians do.
What many advocates of both King James-onlyism and Douay-Rheims-onlyism do not know is that neither Bible is the original issued in the 1600s.
Okay, let's get this straight:
- I worship the Bible?
You're asking me? Bibolatry isn't uncommon, but you should answer for yourself.
The Barbarian said:
You may perhaps not know that the documents from which the KJV was prepared, were supplied by a Roman Catholic, Erasmus.
I don't care if Micky Mouse supplied them.
That was Erasmus. Perhaps you're thinking of who edited them.
I should have taken the hint when you refused to address me after I showed you you were wrong about the King James Bible and ff. using "Godhead."
As you learned, that is a relatively modern revision of scripture. St. Paul, as I showed you, used "divinity" not "Godhead."
But apparently you want to walk and talk like some barbarian and just stomp around
Well, you know how stompy barbarians are...
We aren't so much on accusations. Accuser is on the other side of this argument, I think.
and look and sound like a modern-day scientist.
Well, my wife says that I don't have any sense of fashion at all. And I pronounce "unionized" with four syllables, so you may have a point, there.
My wife won't let me. She insists on reviewing what I want to buy for clothes before I can buy them.
-- but don't expect me to play along.
You're doing just fine.
