Angus, do you honestly think you are going to educate me on how we got the Bible, I've got the complete history of just that, from day one to today, it gets very interesting from the time of just before the reformation and after
I'll give you a hint, in 1522 John Calvin burnt all the copies he could collect of Servetus Bible at Geneva, because they contained notes he did not think they were Orthodox. Indeed Calvin went a step further in that he burned Serventus himself.
Rev J.H. Blunt a protestant due to all the misprinting, translation and interpretation by protestants writes" the CC has quite a lot to answer for but in the 15th Century it certainly did not hold back the Bible from the folks, and it gave us the vernacular.
Indeed we are inclined to think it made a mistake in allowing the masses such ready access to the Bible.
It ought to have recognised the Bible once for all as a work absolutely unintelligible without a long course of historical study, and, so far as it was supposed to be inspired, very dangerous in the hands of the ignorant "
Mr Karl Parson Academic, 1885 blames the CC for throwing the Bible open to the people of the 15th Century
This has been echoed by many during that period, just like back then, people assume they understand the bible, where in reality, they are oblivious to how wrong they really are
I can sit here coping and posting you forever with similarities, but to be honest I really don't give a hoot about much of what you say, as I know you are parroting writing which have the same merits as hislops
anyway, good luck on your journey as you've taken the opposite route, as today with the 30000 different denominations one can see how right these people were just look at the bickering that goes on here, and really that is not of God, I don't want any part of it
