And that was the NT. Do you seriously believe the Jews had no OT compiled until the council of Trent when the Roman church could not even get a majority to agree on a defined list?

The vote was 24 yea, 15 nay, 16 abstain to approve the canon.

55 total possible votes.

44% voted yea.

This means 56% either voted no or abstained.

Rome could not even get a simple majority on this issue.

So much for a "unanimous" consent on this issue.

What else is interesting is the issue of the Latin Vulgate being THE official translation. Other texts were not allowed.

YET in 1943 Pius XII allowed translation based on texts other than the Latin Vulgate. That's quite a lot of change from the group that claims they never change.

I tell ya, when you start peeling back the layers of the onion it gets interesting.

But IF the Roman Catholic really looked at their history they'd also find a number of the dogmas they've been told they HAVE to believe are based on books rejected by the early church and in some cases condemned by the early church.

Yet, they blindly continue to accept what they've been told.
