***The reason they were dropped is that they teach Catholic doctrines that the Protestant Reformers chose to reject.***

Any other "Catholic doctrines" other than prayer for the dead/purgatory [2 Macc. 12:41-45] taught in these books? The indication is that there are other doctrines as well that Protestants were seeking to avoid.

Or are we debating only four verses of doctrinal significance?
