Catholics prohibited from owning Scripture COUNCIL OF TOULOUSE - 1229 A.D Canon 14

we're discussing early Christians not having access to a bible because of their rarity and cost....and you say that one thousand two hundred twenty nine years later...the Catholic church ordered that certain false editions of the bible not be owned..........is that really a valid arguement????....for the first 1,229 years it was O.K. if you could afford one......that doesn't sound like censorship to me...

That's why the Catholic Church had to go to great lengths to outlaw them and confiscate them all. It amazes me that you seem not to realize how absolutely contradictory some of your comments are.
