>Yeah, because papists were willing to act in reason over earthly powers.
So it's okay for secular powers to have control over people that represent God's church supposedly? If God is the head of your church, then why should temporal powers get a kickback from it and use it to make their own state churches?
>No one believes that, especially not historians
Most biblical historians are atheists that hold that Jesus was the son of Joseph and Mary and he wasn't resurrected after his crucifixion. If you want to go down that route and ignore the writings of the first and second generation of Christians, then be my guest. It wouldn't be the first time Protestantism led to deeper avenues of heresy and certainly won't be the last.
>which is easy to do if you think that both are the same yet don't let them impact behavior as if they're part of objective reality
Except that's not the case. Scripture is a part of Tradition, but there are numerous Edicts and Councils that were held over the course of centuries that encompass Sacred Traditions, along with the writings of the Doctors of the Church and the various catechisms documenting it. The last part isn't even special to any particular group. Even Jesus said there would be people that call His name and He would say He doesn't know them. Getting into heaven is harder than going through the eye of a needle.
>the people in charge of the Magisterium are nothing but individuals inspired by the Holy Spirit to clarify the Truths of the Faith
FTFY. Plus, it's not like it was one person in the Magisterium clarifying things. It's literally Councils and the like where a lot of these teachings were added to the Deposit of Faith.
