they didn't "throw out" the Maccabean and other writings at that time

Why is it relevant what the deniers of Christ did or didn't?

Isn't it relevant that Jesus Christ as well as the Apostle Paul, in the first century, STILL considered the Jews as being given the "oracles of God"? How is it that you can denigrate that today when even Jerome in the fifth century as well as many other early church fathers respected their canon? What gives Roman Catholics the right to include these books as equal in authority to the Divinely-inspired books Jesus and the Apostles used to verify their message - especially since the writers of the Apocryphal books NEVER claim to be writing the word of God?
