This doesn't address my argument. YOU said "According to the scriptures..." You're the one using the scriptures and not an outside source. Sola scriptura is an extra-biblical source. And it's a heresy. there is no place in the bible that says "bible only."
The Bible is rather obviously man's words. A combination of bad theology and countless errors makes this rather obvious.According to the scriptures the only heresy is to follow man made teachings and traditions that break the commandments of God and reject the scriptures. According to the very words of JESUS those who follow the teachings and traditions of men over the Word of God are not following God *MATTHEW 15:3-9. This is apostolic teaching *ACTS 5:29. It seems you do not believe it. They are God's Words not mine. I know who I believe and follow and it is not you.
Depends if your a believe or an unbeliever. This is the only thing as to what is obvious IMO
No, it depends if one can think rationally or not. I have yet to see a rationally reasoning literalist. There are countless believers that do not make the mistake of reading the Bible literally. In fact everyone picks and chooses which parts of the Bible to follow, some just give really poor excuses for their inconsistency.Depends if your a believe or an unbeliever.

Where? Point. It. Out. Because in my bible, Jesus refers to oral tradition A. Lot. Which indicates that not even Jesus -- or to be more precise, the gospel writers were fans of sola scriptura. In fact, the gospels, themselves, were oral tradition before being written down and canonized, which means that the authorites canonizing the texts were including extra-biblical material in their canon lists.Sure it does. Seem you do not believe it the same as you do not believe the Apostolic teachings which are scripture
The problem with sola scriptura is that a person can interpret the Bible almost any way that they want to. By ignoring logic, morals, history and evidence they can claim almost any odd wacky belief. One problem of the Protestant sects is that too many of them do make that error. It is also why there are so many more Protestant sects.
You mean that there isn't one? I asked my neighbor and he said that they have a monthly newsletter and everything.
I will find out for you. I think that there are donuts and coffee at the meetings.
