Have you ever been to a Catholic Mass? It has a huge percentage of the Bible in it. Not just in the three readings each week. Protestants have told me protestant services have a much smaller percentage of their services from the Bible. Maybe someone isn’t telling you the truth about Catholics.
The OT reading cycle repeats every two years, and in those two years, the daily mass only covers 13.5% of the Old Testament (3378 verses). The NT reading cycle repeats every three years, and in three years' time the daily mass covers 71.5% of the New Testament (5689 verses). Combine the verses and this accounts for just 12.7% of the entire Bible in the weekly mass, and no more than 27.5% of the entire Bible in the daily mass. But you don't have to believe me, if you don't want to. Do the math for yourself.
That has been addressed before and has shown to NOT be the case. The amount of Scripture that is actually used is limited to a very small amount.
Pinging others because I am not sure who has that information.

So? Maybe that's because believers actually read Scripture outside of church services and aren't going to church to get their weekly dose of Scripture?
People should be getting into it every day of the week on their own. Anyone who depends on what they get in church to be enough is more than mistaken.

Yeah, that's true.....
