The church of Rome has always had a problem with the Bible. Until recently it was not advisable for Catholics to even read the Bible.

Until recently it was not advisable for Catholics to even read the Bible. What do "recently" and "advisable" mean here? Private Bible reading has been indulgenced since the 1920's at least. It's hard for the Church to make it more "advisable" than that.

"Until recently it was not advisable for Catholics to even read the Bible." This is not true. Every child in the Confirmation class was required to get a Bible when I was confirmed back in 1963.
There's a great deal more history behind this, but I can't get into it right now because I'm literally out the door for the doctor's office.
