I was watching Jay dyers reasons why he is not a Roman Catholic?!
It was quite interesting. Not going to go through all of it, but just comment on one thing.
He said that the Catholic argument to the protestants is that you need the pope to interpretate the bible for you. He said its a circular argument, as you are just moving the goal post. How does the laity interpretate the Pope, Papal Bulls, etc?
It seems like a good argument on the surface but further in the video, he can understand papal Bulls (VERY) easily. "Apparently" the church contradicts itself in Vatican 2 and Mortalium Animos. How does he know it does? Is he infallible? Do we take everything in a strict sense? Let's take Feeneyism for example:
Fr Feeney took the strict sence on no salvation outside the church, and the Pope was able to correct him, and now there is no Feeneyism. The bible can't do that, nor can the orthodox as you have Greek and Russian Orthodox.
God bless.
