"Your guys" had their chance, but didn't formalize the second canon until more than a thousand years later

The Christian Canon was formalized at the Carthage councils, presided by St. Augistine, in early 5c. There has not been a single Old Testament since without the Deuterocanons ever since in the Church, East of west. Trent confirmed it because "your guys" were quick with a scissors when the Word of God told you what you did not want to hear.

You know better than repeat this nonsense, by the way. It has been thouroughly debated with you.

FK, are you saying the Church fathers who put together the Christian canon were guided by the Spirit (which is why you read their Bible) but were wrong when it came to deuterocanical books? How's that possible? What makes you think the rest of the Binble was 'protected' from error?
