What DO Catholics have against the Bible? It’s our only true authority and you either ignore it or spin it to say what you wish it to say.

What DO Catholics have against the Bible?

Why DO protestants engage in ritual child sacrifice?

Mary, Mary, Catholics have nothing at all against the Bible. We just like the complete Bible and not the one with some missing books that most Protestants use. (Although some Protestants have shared that they also use the complete Bible — KJV with the additional books added at the end.) Trouble is — there are still mis-translations in the KJV due to Luther.

You said: What DO Catholics have against the Bible?

Nothing. It is the inspired Word of God that, together with Sacred Tradition, gives us the fullness of Divine Revelation.

You said: It’s our only true authority...

That is where the heresy starts. Sacred Tradition is the other pillar of Truth.

You said: you either ignore it or spin it to say what you wish it to say.

Protestants appear to have mastered that skill.
