Your Old Testament doesn't match our Old Testament. That's the Protestant's fault. We use the same Scriptures that the Apostles used in the New Testament. Over 80% of OT verses found in the NT are from the Septaugint.

Where did you get that bit of nonsense from?

Would you like to start a thread on the Septuagint?

You accept the Apocrypha books as scripture. You are again incorrect. There is no Apocrypha in the Catholic Bible

There isn't?

Oh, you mean you just don't call them Apocrypha books.

You have 14 Books that you regard as Canonical, which we do not.

As for the New Testament, there are differences within the Books themselves. You mean translations?

I mean the Greek text that the Roman Catholic Church Bible uses, the Critical Text, not the Received Text of Erasmus or Beza.

The Roman Catholic bible is not the Christian Bible. I guess Christianity didn't exist until the Protestant Reformation, then. I wonder why Jesus didn't protect His Church like He promised...

Oh, the Church existed as did the Bible.

It was only driven underground by the Romanists who attempted to destroy both.

Just arriving on this thread, and it's too late to pound-away at the keyboard trying to refute utter nonsense point-by-point. So this will serve: the quality of your scholarship is demonstrated by your assertion that the Catholics have 14 books in their Bible that the Protestants do not. Please, by all means, go ahead and NAME them. I count only seven (46 versus 39), and they are far from "extra" relative to your OT. Good night.

Not in particular. I already have enough letters to respond to without proving that the earth is round again and again...

You have 14 Books that you regard as Canonical, which we do not.

Fourteen? What religion are you again???

I mean the Greek text that the Roman Catholic Church Bible uses, the Critical Text, not the Received Text of Erasmus or Beza.

Since when is the "received text of Erasmus" the official text of the Church? I suppose next, we'll be switching to the "received text" of Joseph Smith? Since when is "critical text" infallibly guided by the Spirit?

Oh, the Church existed as did the Bible. It was only driven underground by the Romanists who attempted to destroy both.

Your funny. Yea, the "Romanists" had lots of political power the first 300 years of Christianity, didn't they...

I got more serious letters to respond to. Good day.
