However, I DID NOT call you a liar.

What does the single word "untrue" mean to you?

Can you indicate a Protestant denomination that has a reading schedule that includes the ENTIRE Bible over a proscribed period of time?

To my knowledge Protestants make no claim concerning the coverage of Bible reading during Church Services. Protestants are expected to read the Bible at home and/or during Bible Study.

What would compel you to ask such an unrelated question?

That a statement is false.

However, it does not rise to the level of a lie unless it is knowingly false. I do not see where he said you stated it was true though you knew it to be false.

A plenary indulgence is offered to any Catholic who spends a half-hour a day in pious study of sacred Scripture.

Additionally, the Liturgy of the Hours provides readings from every book of the Catholic Bible, along with selections from Church Fathers and Doctors of the Church, in a one-year cycle.

If I say to you 2+3=7 and you say, "untrue," have you called me a liar or corrected what you see as an error on my part?

I made a statement, you corrected me, I recognized the validity of your correction.

To my knowledge Protestants make no claim concerning the coverage of Bible reading during Church Services. Protestants are expected to read the Bible at home and/or during Bible Study.

Your insinuation was that the ONLY place a Catholic read the Bible was in Mass, this would be a false assumption. Therefore, it makes just as much sense for me to infer that without hearing it in Church that a Protestant might not read the whole Bible. So yes, if your question is valid, so is mine.

In all seriousness: I thouth the difference between calling a statement “untrue” or “false” or something of the kind and calling it a lie was, well, common knowledge. Wow, if not, then I bet I’ve been misunderstood right much.
