The Bible is a whole different story. "Sola Scriptura" is one of the five pillars of the Reformation, - if it cannot be proven from Scripture it is not a true Christian doctrine. The early fathers compiled the Bible and the Roman and Orthodox churches claim the credit for this, disregarding that those who put the Bible together would be unlikely to recognise Christianity in either of those bodies. Rome then proceeded to block the laity from reading the Bible, not wanting people to compare Scripture with their teachings.

If it wasn't taught in public infant school religious education I know nothing about it. I have the basic idea. The virgin thing through to the walking on the moon bit.

If it wasn't taught in public infant school religious education I know nothing about it. I have the basic idea. The virgin thing through to the walking on the moon bit. I undestand. I grrew up protestant in a divided city but nobody ever toldnme why I was a Protestant Most people in our divided cities don't know why they are either protestant or Catholic. My Catholic mother says they are not allowed to know, told to follow without question. Protestants have no excuse. We were born of the Guttenberg printing press. Martin Luther went on a leaflet war with the Roman church, knowing that to question, the thirst for knowledge, was key to progress. Examine the Western world through protestant eyes. Then you will understand that it was Luther's genius and insight that created the first tier countries such as the UK, USA, Scandinavia, Holland etc. Look at NAFTA. Three countries, two protestant, one Catholic. The Catholic country is the basket case, just as the rest of that continent is a basket case. They'll never truly progress until they turn their back on the Catholic church. Ir's happening.

Religion is in its death throes.
In 100 years it will be referred to in the same manner as Raiders of the Lost Ark.
