What is your source for verifying all of the above?

Some better questions: What is your source before 325 AD (when the Council of Nicaea formally codified the New Testament)? And do you assume the scriptural compilation agreed upon at the Council of Nicaea was infallible as Catholic Tradition holds? If not, why assume that your Bible is valid? Without Catholic Tradition, the council is nothing but a bunch of old bishops glueing together their personal hand-picked selections.

Why not answer mine?

Evasion is not an answer nor are asking me questions.

Are you attempting to tell us that prior to 325 AD people sat around contemplating their navels while waiting for someone to compile what would become their beliefs?

I hate to be the one to break this to you, but the Council of Nicaea did nothing more than CONFIRM what had ALREADY been in existence, the commonly held books, letters, epistles that made up our Bible were accepted and known by believers. I know it hurts, but Catholics did not teach mankind how to hunt, fish, or find God.

Nicea did no such thing. Maybe in Dan Brown books.
