It's clear they don't read it.

Now lets be fair. It's not their Tradition. ;-0

Both of these posts are nonsense.

I don't post very often, as I guess one could say I belong to the unwashed masses who lurk but don't often post because I am not a learned person.

But to say that Catholics don't read the Bible (which I'm happy to report is not true), or to say "it's not their Tradition", isn't true, either.

The problem obviously is not whether we Catholics--today, in this moment in time, in this present culture--read the Bible and hear it proclaimed to us in our churches, but that we don't always interpret it exactly as other Christians do.

So is that new? That's what all these never-ending, voluminous posts are really all about--it's all about interpretation.

But is isn't correct to say Catholics "don't read the Bible", because it "isn't their tradition to do so."

Whether individual Catholics read the Bible as often and as well they should is another topic altogether. And I presume that can be said generally about many Christian believers.

Hey we did have tradition! Plus we had to memorize it. Our other tradition was to sit there and pay attention, lol
