If not for the Catholic Church you wouldn’t have the Bible.

What...roman catholics wrote it??

That's gonna come as a shock to a lot of Jews.

Catholics only formally agreed upon their version of the Bible at Trent.

If not for the Catholic Church controlling and banning the proliferation of hundreds of mistranslations, you wouldn’t know where to start.

You mean like this...

No direct or categorical and stringent proof of the dogma can be brought forward from Scripture. But the first scriptural passage which contains the promise of the redemption, mentions also the Mother of the Redeemer. The sentence against the first parents was accompanied by the Earliest Gospel ( Proto-evangelium ), which put enmity between the serpent and the woman : "and I will put enmity between thee and the woman and her seed; she (he) shall crush thy head and thou shalt lie in wait for her (his) heel" ( Genesis 3:15 ).

The translation "she" of the Vulgate is interpretative; it originated after the fourth century, and cannot be defended critically.http://www.catholic.org/encyclopedia/view.php?id=6056

One of roman catholicism's biggest teachings and it's based on an undefendable translation of the Vulgate.

Hey...for that matter...it's not even based on Scripture.
