Are you even reading what you write? You say I lie when I say the RCC wanted to control the way the Bible was interpreted then you agree that “unauthorized translations” and “unauthorized margian glosses” were prohibited. Give us a break.
I said, “they only prohibited reading scripture apart from the teaching authority of the Church."
What do you think “unauthorized translations” means? It means translations “under the authority of the RCC. If a translation disagreed with the RCC it was considered heresy and “unauthorized” and they were prohibited from reading it.
The problem they have today is proliferation of information. If it were up to them I’m guessing they would somehow include the assumption of Mary in their "authorized" version of scripture but alas it’s too late.
I’m starting to think they’re spreading something, but it ain’t the Gospel.
I did not accuse you of lying. I have no doubt that you believe that lie to be true. You have been duped by 500+ years of Reformationist propaganda. Its actually pretty sad that you would spend so much personal credibility on a falsehood and indirectly supporting 2000 years of heresies.
What do you care? That prohibition was only binding on Catholics and was a reaction to the Cathar and Waldensian heresies. It applied to the Koran as well. Although the Index Librorum Prohibitorum was relaxed in 1966, the Church still bans works associated with heresy, moral deficiency, sexual explicitness. Do deny the Church has the right to censor material it considers objectionable and dangerous materials.
