Scripture is given much lip service in theory, but in practice, scripture is a distant 3rd.<br /><br />Several verses of Scripture is read during the mass and that is probably the only exposure to scripture that the vast majority of Catholics ever experience.bkayceehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15735441833526239587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19795707.post-65090311583470084922009-07-07T00:12:21.402-04:002009-07-07T00:12:21.402-04:00While you will find Roman Catholics that proclaim ...While you will find Roman Catholics that proclaim they believe Tradition & Scripture are equal and others that proclaim Scripture is over Tradition, I have found that in practice most Roman Catholics I encounter place Tradition over Scripture. They tend not to admit it--but it sure looks that way.<br /><br />As a former RC I have a lot of experience in this realm, I am not referring to a few isolated examples, but many over the years.<br /><br />I do admit this is not true of all RC's--but is is true of most I have encountered.pilgrimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06341946961084387134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19795707.post-42453409738017282892009-07-02T15:13:20.914-04:002009-07-02T15:13:20.914-04:00Please check out the link that David Waltz gave (...Please check out the link that David Waltz gave (read the comboxes and my disagreements with DW)<br /><br />and also this one:<br /><br />http://articulifidei.blogspot.com/2009/06/ken-temple-mike-liccione-and-randy-on.html (read the comboxes)<br /><br />give some feedback, please.<br />KenKenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824685809003307918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19795707.post-22535509994060697092009-07-02T14:29:24.156-04:002009-07-02T14:29:24.156-04:00"Scripture comes from Tradition!"
"..."Scripture comes from Tradition!"<br /><br />"No, Tradition comes from Scripture!"<br /><br />"The Bible is the only "word that comes from God!"<br /><br />"Yes, but we need a bunch of man-made Traditions to understand God's word!"<br /><br />Ay-ay-ay.
