“The men of the Catholic Church who brought Scripture to the world” “The Catholic Church gave you the Bible and the interpretation of it.”

Sheer arrogance. When these letters and gospels were written they weren’t written by Catholics because there WERE NO CATHOLICS in the first century.

You can tout the Bible as the Catholic gift to the world, fact remains that Catholics didn’t write it.

Interesting. The first written reference we have to Catholic is about 80 AD written as if it were a commonplace and well known fact.

We freely give what we have assembled to the surly, the unrepentent, and the ungrateful. And we accept the spitting and the plucking of our beards by the wrathful and the jealous.

Umm, the epistles from James through Jude are called the Catholic letters. Maybe you might actually read your Bible in order to find out what’s there.
