Wow. I thought this was an article about the history of the bible. Turns out it’s just an ugly rehash of anti-Catholic BS propaganda.
The most pernicious lie in an article chock-filled of lies, distortions, slander and flat out invented nonsense:
“By Tyndales day, it was still a crime to translate or read the Bible in ones mother tongue.”
The Catholic Church did not object to English translations. In fact, there had been published, English-language breviaries for forever. (Breviaries were compilations of readings and prayers from the bible; they typically included the entire New Testament, and all the psalms, prayers, and hymns from the Old Testament. The Catholics objected to Tyndale’s bible because of the commentaries and bad translations.
English translations weren’t more common simply because if you were literate at all, you were literate in Latin. The English language simply was too primitive to even express the Greek arguments.
Well, the truth some times has to include the truth
you must have missed the thread yesterday where someone actually defended the inquisition
