My maternal grandfather was an Italian immigrant from Pioppo that was excommunicated specifically for having a Bible in his posession.

What version/ translation did he have and what was he doing with it. There is more to this story than you are telling.

Of COURSE there is; but the pertinent stuff has been told.


Will any of today's RCC members be excommunicated for having any scurrilous, non-Rome approved bible in their possession?

The “more’ is not much more.

He was reading the NT, sitting in a rear pew of the church, is all he told anyone that he was doing.
