“Do you think that Catholics don’t believe this?”

I don’t know about other Roman Catholics; you just wrote that the Roman Catholic Church wrote the Bible, which as I noted by Scripture, is an outright falsehood.

So.. do YOU believe it? If so, why did you say that some man-made institution *wrote* the Bible? God breathed it out; not the Roman Catholic Church....

Which is it?

I guess you missed this:

"We are compelled to concede to the Papists
that they have the Word of God,
that we received it from them,
and that without them
we should have no knowledge of it at all."

Well, the New Testament, anyway. The Christian writers were inspired by God, obviously. But the question at hand is, How do Christians know who was and wasn't inspired by God? As other Protestants here have noted, some NT books (like Revelation) were disputed for a considerable period of time.

The Catholic Church determined which writings and letters were inspired by God. Eventually these writings were compiled by the Church into the NT.
