The gospel is so simple to understand, this may be why these sects were so slow to have Bibles translated in the vernacular and encourage members of their sects to read them. If they read Scripture they can't help but start asking questions.

Yes, this is exactly my assessment as well. It's funny, on another thread I made a statement along the lines of "a little knowledge can be dangerous", and they immediately agreed! But we weren't talking about the same thing. :)

..."a little knowledge can be dangerous"...

I believe it was only after Vatican II that RC's were encouraged to have Bible studies without a Priest present. In the end, the more they study Scripture the greater the harvest of the LORD.
