Catholics need to rediscover the Bible.

No they don't. Catholics are more into the Bible now than they have ever been in their history . . . and they've never been more irreverent, doubting, and skeptical towards it.

What good does it do to have everyone reading bibles that are annotated with liberal, higher-critical commentaries that insist that the Torah was a late forgery and that Genesis was a rip-off of ancient Babylonian and Canaanite cosmogonical myths? Shoot, apparently (from at least one FReeper) G-d didn't even slay the Egyptian firstborn (that was a "metaphor").

Catholics were better off when they were totally unfamiliar with the Bible but implicitly believed it. In modern Catholicism familiarity has breeded only contempt.

I stand by my position.

Care to quote what "bibles" you are referring to? Publisher and editions would be helpful.

You seem to be having a hard time ignoring the image of an angel ripping a two year old child out of the arms of an apolitical, impoverished innocent mother and killing it.
