there were many false “scripture” interpretations around at the time. The church knew that people could not afford the true hand written copies from the monastaries, hence, for their own protection, and to prevent heresies from spreading, they regulated reading material to the masses.

Wait, I thought you said “The Church kept scripture out of the hands of noone....”.

Then I showed you this proving they did just that.

“Canon 14. We prohibit also that the laity should be permitted to have the books of the Old or New Testament; unless anyone from motive of devotion should wish to have the Psalter or the Breviary for divine offices or the hours of the blessed Virgin; but we most strictly forbid their having any translation of these books.

Which specifically refers to ”the Old or New Testament”. Now you come up with “there were many false “scripture” interpretations around at the time.”? Are you kidding me? Canon 14 specifically states that ”We prohibit also that the laity should be permitted to have the books of the Old or New Testament”. Then it goes on to say we most strictly forbid their having any translation of these books”.. Canon 14 is not restricting copies or translations that were “false interpretations”. It denied them having “the books of the Old or New Testament” period. Something you denied and are now trying to somehow bamboozle us into believing something different than truth. It ain’t working with those of us who do know truth.

But I thought you just said that the RCC didn't keep the Bible from the people.

That is Nicolaitanism, and Yeshua declared that he hated it.

Catholic is “Religion,” and Yeshua is “The Way,” and never will the two meet.
