Protestant Reformation: "Some portion of traditional Church interpretations of scripture are in error!"Just about every modern American protestant denomination splitting in favor of womens' ordination and SGM inclusion: "Some portion of traditional Church interpretations of scripture are in error!"Thoughts?

@SecondJon Sure, just as there's a portion of "We're not interpreting scripture, WE'RE JUST READING IT!!!"

@SecondJon I'm not sure there's a significant difference, in that both groups are often making up their own non-scriptural authority. One claims to be scripture, but distorts scripture to mean whatever they pre-decided it should mean. The other just ignores scripture. Both are ways to justify living the life you've already chosen.

@SecondJon that's definitely a fair point. Though those who consider their interpretations equivalent to scripture may not lack common ground, but they do lack interest in discussion as a concept. Practical outcome is the same.
