The Holy Spirit worked through the the apostles and bishops of the Church, and the Holy Scripture resulted.

Tsk, tsk. This is not the official position of the Church. The Church teaches that they (the Church) simply confirmed the inspiration of the scriptures. The Holy Scriptures were not the result of the Church.

What is really at issue is the Church no longer has any distinction between inspired writings and man-made writings. They will just as soon quote from Anselm or Thomas More as they will from John or Peter.

Do you propose we take YOUR word on the official position of the Catholic Church?

I didn't say they were: I know the English grammar better than that.

Toooooo true.

And one particular nutty cult . . . will go gahgah in large numbers over . . .

purported Maryolatry visages . . . on tortilas . . . moldy stucco . . .

What will they do with increasingly overt Fatima type hoaxes staged by the prince and power of the air with his fallen angel cohorts?
