Hi Scorpio,
I am a free thinker who is an Aramaic primacist, but we never can 'beat' the Greek primacists without listening to what they say.
This thing, he said is very true.
Extreme positions about the source texts that we have, do not assist us neither help others to gain faith in God.

I've been in that position, in the past, when I was a 'Watchtower slave', I found that absolute positions (in textcriticism) do not really convince and neither can be supported by the available facts.
