["No one gets to be the final authority on God's word."]
Is that a moral absolute you are trying to assert? Unfortunately, according to your own "nobody has the right" logic, you don't have the right to tell me I am not the final authority on God's word.

That's ok. Your god will judge you when you die, and then send you to hell for presuming that you know the mind of god.
Edit: It strikes me now that I have just done the same thing, but considering that I don't believe in him it makes no difference to me anyway.
No, no one does have the right to assert that you are not the final authority on any deity's word. But by the same token, you have no right to even try and claim it. No one can say with certainty that you aren't just as you cannot say with certainty you are.
Eli, we have just as much right to tell you aren't the final authority as you have the imagined right to tell us you are the final authority. And you just don't like it. Now go hold your breath until you turn blue (won't change things, but might make you shut up for a while)
1 Cor 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
Your own holy book tells you God is the only final authority on God's word.
Doesn't Eli's statement remind anyone of Peter Griffin:
Peter: Chris, everthing I say is a lie . . .except that . . .and that . . . and that . . .and that. . .
There is a word in the dictionary that describes a person who thinks he is the final authority on the word of god: megalomaniac.
They medication and treatment for it now, you know.
Every single fundie thinks they are the Final Authority on God's word. It's the absolute certainty that makes them fundies. Sadly there can be only one Highlander- er, Final Authority. So you'll have to fight it out to the death in this arena i've constructed. Don't look so worried my Christian chums. Surely God will favour you in combat as his chosen mouthpiece?
Tonight's opening act will be Eli fending off a grizzly bear with a rubber mallet. The main event will be a knife fight between AV and Supersport. Taking all bets!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
