Luther threw out the portions of the Bible that clearly smacked down his trash and moved part of the New Testament to an Appendix he prefaced with the important information that those books he placed in the Appendix were not inspired by God.

Protestant folks throw out Scripture then pretend Catholic doctrine squarely based on Scripture is false. Along with repeating the same slurs the Romans used when throwing Christians to the lions, the majority of Protestant folks have become just like Romans who each worship their own little god that speaks to them through their Self and Self Alone.

Is it not true that, as to the canon of the Old Testament, that the Jews had two canons: the Hebrew Canon and the Septuagint or Greek Canon which I believe is associated with Alexandria, that the Early Christian Church and Roman Catholicism ever after chose the Septuagint which was the longer canon and that Luther and the Reformation adopted the Hebrew Canon which was shorter?

Is is not also true that we can be generous to one another across denominational lines and not attribute motives to Luther or others who are long dead?
