When one wants to discuss a lie, what is it when someone is offered proof from Catholic sources that Catholic scholars long disagreed about the doctrinal value of the Apocrypha, and then responds in answer to Trent failing to address the question:

“There was no question to answer.”

The Catholic historian Hubert Jedin in his “History of the Council of Trent” discussed it, as cited, but some Catholics simply deny what took place.

Is that a lie? Or is it deliberate rejection of the truth? Or is there difference?

Those are the words of someone who has lost an argument but for whatever reason, can't or won't accept it.
