Prove most people in that day couldn’t read.

You keep making a lot of unfounded assertions and expect us to believe you just on your say so.

It ain’t happening.

Show us the basis for your comments otherwise, there’s simply no reason for anyone to believe you.

Wouldn't be easier to prove that Catholics do not NEED to read?

Just, for a brief moment or two, use common sense.....there was virtually nothing available to the average person, to read....no books, no periodicals, they had town criers who provided them with the news of the day....there was very little, if any written correspondence and they had scribes to do that....there was no necessity for the average person to learn to read....THERE WAS NOTHING TO READ.
