My fellow Christians of all Groups!
Each and every one of you belong to an Entity [parish or church] within any one of the four Groups [Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant & non-align].
Each Entity carries a Charter of Being [mission statement, purpose and goal statements].
Each Entity also carries the Identity of the Group:
–A Catholic parish grandly and joyfully carries the Flag of the Group of Catholicism - and justly so.
–An Orthodox parish…ditto…the Flag of Orthodoxy.
–And so on with Protestant and non-align
Now, let me ask you faithful and loyal Catholics here a question?
Would you allow an atheist to define a Doctrine you hold?
Would you allow a Protestant to erroneously define a Doctrine you hold? Non-align?
No, you define your Doctrine which is represented by your Flag of Catholicism. Catholicism defines Catholicism, no more, less.
Then, why are the Protestants and us non-aligns not allowed to define our Doctrine of Prima/Sola Scriptura?
Better, yet:
You normal, dedicated, daily-walking, smart/hard working Catholics –
– are you going to allow the extremists within your Group (or within your Entity) to define a Doctrine accepted by the Norm of Catholicism, as approved by HF-PJPII & the Magisterium?
No, then why are a few of you dragging up extremists within either the Protestant or non-align Groups and “forcing” their behavior upon our Norm of Prima/Sola Scriptura?
