To: johngrace; Salvation
You have given a very thorough and detailed explanation for why the Catholic Church (quite logically) would not approve a bible translation that included commentary and notes opposed to its teachings. All well and good. But I have a question to ask and I most sincerely hope you will respond.

Why is it that this same church today grants the nihil obstat and imprimatur to bible translations that teach the blasphemous documentary hypothesis, that the first eleven chapters of Genesis are derived from ancient Babylonian and Canaanite mythology? Furthermore, this theory is the creation of nineteenth century liberal German Lutherans. Why is it that the church that so zealously objected to distortions by people like Wycliffe and Tyndale now promotes the evil documentary hypothesis throughout the entire world?

Please respond.

Good question, and which is why what constitutes RC teaching varies from Catholic to Catholic.
