I have given you Scripture after Scripture that says the answers are contained within them. Yet, you reject them. Demanding Scriptural references means absolutely nothing if you do not read them or when you stop reading when you read into the Scripures what you want them to say. I think that you have done both of these example with the last two or three references that I have made.I have enough respect for GOD that when someone tries to push a tradition on me, I want scripture for it.
Its ironic I get no praising for demanding scripture, No one is providing scripture that teaches that tradition.
The Scriptures were written to be read the way that they were put on the page Millenia ago.They were never written so that the people of the time had to do mental gymnastics in order to get the message. The only religions that teach them the Scriptures need to be "interpreted" are the religions that should be questioned the hardest. If these hard questions seem mean and spiteful, perhaps you should read the four gospels and find out how Jesus talked to the Pharisees, Sadducees, and scribes. It would not surprise me at all if modern day Jews would say the same thing about Jesus that you have said about us.
