It is my opinion that the Catholic Church wrote, gathered, canonized, and preserved Sacred Scripture, through its teachings and traditions.

And your opinion has been shown to be in error.

It's your opinion because it's what they want you to believe happened. In truth, the churches were to be in subjection to the word of God just as their elder brothers the Jews were commanded to be to the writings of Moses and the Prophets.

Here is a great article to help you learn about that: The Formation of the New Testament Canon

well, you're wrong then.

The apostles wrote the NT, and they were Jews. And it was written while they were alive as attested by themselves.

Catholicism cannot take credit for the OT in any way, shape, or form. So their claim of ownership of Scripture falls far short.
