So, is it YOUR ridiculous interpretation of history that EVERY WORD spoke by Jesus was written down?

You are absurd.

Jesus visited the Temples, frequently. Jesus has no RECORDED statements or rebukes against the keepers of the Temples for any of the historical documents and manuscripts in the Temples.

If Jesus had a problem with Maccabees or any other writings, why did Jesus not say so, in order to bring both Christians and Jews along on the proper path?

BECAUSE JESUS HAD NO PROBLEM WITH THE BOOKS THAT MARTIN LUTHER PURGED FROM THE BIBLE!

No, because scripture informs us otherwise. John 20:31 31 But these are written that you may believe[a] that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

And yet to that Catholics must believe in more in order to be saved.

By the same token, purgatory. Huge turn from the rest of scripture. Such an important required doctrine surely would have been explained by the Author of our salvation. Offering prayer to mortal saints departed, I would love to have heard what Paul would have said had he known that the faithful he had instructed in the Gospel would so quickly disregard the "one intercessor between God and man". But since Catholics 'wrote the Bible', I wonder what they would have done with first second and third letters to the Catholics from Paul?

Jesus told us what is right. He didn’t tell us every possible thing that could be wrong.

He didn’t need to because if it’s not in what He mentioned as right, then it’s at the very least, not important.

The Bible doesn’t say Jesus didn’t own a golf course. Can we then presume that He did because the Bible doesn’t tell us otherwise?
