>Sola Scriptura is also very silly if you consider Luther preaching that and then taking away a few books of Scripture from the Bible
Why are Catholics so ignorant about Church history and the history of the canon despite always being the ones complaining about Protestants knowing nothing about the church before 1517? The "apocrypha" (I disagree with Luther's use of this term, but since it's the accepted term now I'll use it) was never considered Canon. You're only regurgitating the lies you've been told, nothing else. Let's see what Luther himself had to say about the "apocrypha", straight from the pages of his own translation of the Bible, echoing St. Jerome and Athanasius: „Apokrypha: Das sind Bücher: so der heiligen Schrift nicht gleich gehalten, und doch nützlich und gut zu lesen sind“, or in English "Apocrypha: These are books that, though not esteemed like the Holy Scriptures, are still both useful and good to read."
