Why should I give you a break? You claimed "A clergyman hopelessly entrenched in Roman Catholic dogma once taunted Tyndale". I'd like to know who it was so we can verify the truthfulness of your claim.
Those are exactly the sentiments Rome has always had!
Your opinions have as much value as your anonymous quote.
Tyndales comment is a factual one, and I believe it was said by Tyndale when he was denied the right to translate the Bible.
The current owner of Little Sodbury Manor graciously allowed us to take photos of the Great Room. It is here that Tyndale had discussions over dinner with visiting Catholic priests and prelates. It is perhaps in this room that the famous discussion was carried on, in which a priest said, “We only need the pope’s laws,” and Tyndale replied that he defied the pope and all his laws and that he intended to make the plowboy to know the Scriptures.)

And it is likely that he picked up the quote from Erasmus.
