Why not start a thread on an aspect of theology you would like to discuss?

Yep.
What I have read is many posts expressing theology via a personal experience...without concern that the experience may be contradictory to God's word.

I see what I think you intended, but it's not as though no one here ever makes a doctrinal point and backs it up with a reference to some Bible passage.

A great many posts are either scripture quote interlaced into a narrative or a narrative with scripture citations.

Where?
Most are merely anecdotal experiences that others are supposed to accept as being from God. That's not theology.

Most of your posts, based upon what I read, are comments from your church rather than from scripture.

Can't, or don't, Catholics ever cite a Bible passage in support of some doctrinal position rather than a Papal Bull or Catechism entry? Sure they do.
