I agreed that he did not like the epistle of James..but it was never excluded from Protestant Bibles. I have heard that what is strange is that Luther's commentary on Romans actually sounds like it could be on James.

Remember most Catholic Clergy did not read the bible...most laymen only heard it preached in Latin..without Luther your church would still have the bible hidden in the basement.

So I would not be too critical of His stand on one book. The church hid the whole thing

And all these years I thought Guttenberg's printing press was respomsible for spreading the availability of the Bible, which the Catholic monks had preserved for 1500 years.
