the catholic church outlawed the regular person from ever owning a bible ...period..if you were caught with a bible.. you were most likely killed... only the priest or "noble man" could tell you what was in it..

that all changed when the printing press came out... and 150 years after that the pilgrims set sail to america --- they saw the writing on the wall after 800 years of war on the european continent... united states is truly a godsend.. that was squandered into the den of satan..

that war is still going on...
