>> But you, as well as other members of other denominations would agree with me, that the original Bible and translations came from the Catholic Church, wouldn’t you?<<

And Obama and the Federal government follow the original constitution right? Don’t give me that nonsense about the Catholic Church staying true to original scripture. It doesn’t hold up any more. The Israelites are the original people of God yet the Catholic Church says they no longer are treated as God’s chosen people so the old “we are the originals” obviously isn’t something the CC really holds to either. All of those “we are the original” and “the church Christ instituted” is folly when it’s obvious that over time people fall away from whatever it was that originally formed the belief system and the CC is one prime example as is the current Federal Government example.

Are you forgetting that there are 22 Catholic Churches? Not just the Roman Catholic Church?

"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."

~ Martin Luther
