Sorry don’t understand. That;s a sound bite? The only “Bible” Our Blessed Lord knew was the Septuagint, although it is not a “Bible” per se. As for the Bible as most (but not all) non-Catholics know was put together in the last few hundred years, which seems fairly man-made to me, no? Specifically, Luther relegated Macabees etc to a lesser part of his “Bible” on his own initiative, based on the Council of Jamnia. Now, most non-Catholic Biles (except for many Anglican Bibles) don’t even include those books (as Calvin, Zwingli, Cranmer and Luther’s “Bible” did for years). Again, seems like a lot of man made decisions there.

It would, from a Catholic point of view. Protestants take a deeper look at God's Word and feel He guided the process from beginning to end. We look to God through His Word and Catholics look to man to interpret (meaning whatever Rome wishes to bestow). God IS infallible and ALL MEN are fallible (including men wearing tall hats).
