You just can't tell me that the Deuterocanonical books were not controversial among the Apostolics

Nearly all New Testament books were controversial in a similar sense. The point remains, the same people who determined the books that you accept also included as inspired the books that you reject. "All scripture is inspired by God...".

Not quite accurate. The Hebrew forefathers never accepted what the Church deemed inspired 300 years later. And there were different lists as to what was inspired all the way to the fourth century. It really depends on the group of people. One could easily make the case (as us Protestants have) that the same people who determined the books that you accept as inspired, they rejected.
