I wonder what they charge for a bible?
The Roman Catholic Church has traditionally opposed Bibles in the hands of the laity.
From the Council of Toulouse:
Canon 14. We prohibit also that the laity should be permitted to have the books of the Old or New Testament; unless anyone from motive of devotion should wish to have the Psalter or the Breviary for divine offices or the hours of the blessed Virgin; but we most strictly forbid their having any translation of these books.
From the Council of Tarragona:
Canon 2. No one may possess the books of the Old and New Testaments in the Romance language, and if anyone possesses them he must turn them over to the local bishop within eight days after promulgation of this decree, so that they may be burned lest, be he a cleric or a layman, he be suspected until he is cleared of all suspicion.
And the current RCC has been silent on the matter of allowing private interpretation although they've had to get with the program on free speech because their bans on vernacular Bibles (which were last stated in the 1983 Code of Canon Law) are wholly irrelavant to the citizens of free nations. The RCC may yet still frown on people having their own Bibles but they are utterly powerless to do anything about it.
Which is as it should be.
