 How many times do I have to say "I AM NOT KJVO IN THE COLLOQUIAL SENSE" before you get it through your head?

Are you even reading these responses? I bet you aren't. You're a waste of time.

>How is it not downstream of Sola Scriptura?

Sola Scriptura is a claim about the normative authority of the Church. It's a claim about the metaphysical status of Scripture.

My position on the science of Biblical text criticism is based on an internal examination of the 3 printed editions of the Greek New Testament, as well as research into development of the theories that currently dominate the field. It's material and scientific.

You could be a Roman Catholic and still basically hold to my position. You'd have to say there is no sufficient translation into English, but that's actually not all that crazy, since historically, Rome has assassinated anyone who tried to translate Scripture into English. The original 5 editions of the Textus Receptus were printed by a Roman Catholic.
