I would like to hear from you guys what you think of the claim of a Roman Catholic, who tries to convince me that the "Church" is the "Formal" and "Efficient" cause of the Scriptures/Special revelation (whatever "Church" is in the first place, he elegantly circumvents this challenge of mine that he has to consistently establish apart from Scripture in the first place). It ends up in the silly position that you don't know Divine truths apart from Roman despotism. I think that claim is utterly absurd not only on a historical but also on a metaphysical and epistemological basis.
