Shouldn’t that read supposed Catholics? Alleged Catholics?

The infiltration of the Church is pretty much complete around the world. The progressive left is on a roll!

Since there is a judgement at the end of this age, I wonder how harsh it will be for people that change God’s word to suit their own world view.

They have no fear towards their impending doom. If there is no manuscript evidence, there is no authority to change anything.

Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou amongst them and blessed is the fruit of thy incubator Jesus. Holy Mary, Parent of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.

I thought Catholic’s used the Catholic bible with the 5 extra non-canonical books.

Genesis 3:17, “ because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten from the tree....”....woman are the weaker vessel, like it or not, and strictly prohibited from preaching to the Church for obvious reasons- all of which started in Genesis. A genderless Bible is an abomination.

The Christian Bible contents vary with time and place, with Ethiopia having the largest compendium. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_canon
The KJV initially required all the books as the Catholic Bible but after the 1769 version seemed to have dropped the Apocrypha which was initially required by King James and referred to in the Lectionary of the Book of Common Prayer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_James_Version#Standard_text_of_1769
Cutting about a quarter of the pages enabled missionaries to translate the Bible into local languages faster.

Just trying to be gender neutral with a dose of sarcasm.

I always found it a bit too inclusive for my tastes.

My personal preference is the NKJV.

Bingo.

Ezekiel 12:2
Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious house.

The ESV comes in a Catholic Edition. In fact, it looks like there may be competing ESV - CE and ESV W/A editions out there.

Revelation 22:18-19
18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
