Just reasonable, just reasonable. My littlest one just turned 2 and she is the one of the 7 greatest blessings that God has bestowed on me in my lifetime.

The trouble is that there are some differences about Bibles, some major, some minor. If there is no completely objective source (stone tablets from God, say), then who is to say that THIS particular version in THIS particular verse says EXACTLY this and means EXACTLY this?

We believe that that authority is the Catholic Church, left to us by Jesus. You either have that or you have anybody coming up with anything with equal amount of authority.

My littlest one will be turning 50 in a few months.

And just how many authorized versions of the Bible exist within the Catholic Church?
