The Apocrypha itself never claims to be the Word of God.

It would be interesting to see you put that test to each of the books in the Protestant canon.

These works were opposed by Athanasius, Cyril of Jerusalem, Origen, and Jerome

That is not true. For example, see these quotes from Athanasius, Cyril and Origen. Jerome did have some problem with them, but then submitted to Church teaching.

Fathers catholics are quick to quote as if they were infallible.. I guess they were only infallible when they agree with them

The Church does not teach that they are infallible. Don't try to pass it off as Church teaching because it is not true and it does not bolster your case.

They do all "test" ..all of them are Christocentric..not so for the pretenders

LOL so that makes them true? Mormons submit to the book of Mormon does that make it true ? Muslims submit to the koran ..does that make it true?

hey listen friend most of the arguments I read hear from Catholics are from the church fathers .. they sure act like they are infallible
