They have bibles (due to pressure from evanglical groups) but the Catholic church does not encourage bible reading. Catholics are taught that they cannot understand the Bible, so they let the Priest handle that. Catholics (with very few exceptions) are not bible readers.

Lie. It says right in each Bible that one can earn an indulgence for faithfullr reading it. So take your nonsense elsewhere. Lies about Catholics don't ingratiate yourself to anyone or serve the God of Truth.

Oh, where is that in scripture. So you can earn an indulgance?

Does not the Catholic church teach that they are the final interpretators of Scripture?

As for 'lies about Catholics' history is the great exposer of Catholicism. When the Catholic church could not stop the reading of Bibles, then and only then did they agree to put the Bible in the common language of the people.

The burning stakes of Tyndale and others are an eternal witness of the real attitude of Rome about the Bible.
