What if there are missing material or chapters from the Bible that have been removed and long hidden under the Vatican? Or scrolls and ancient materials? I can’t wait to see what is unearthed!
Protestants removed books from the Bible, brought it down to 66, ask them.
Apocrypha?

You might want to rethink your charge. In the first place, it was Protestants that made the Bible available to the common person. Catholics restricted copies of the Bible to the priesthood. Thanks to Gutenberg. The first Bible written in English was translated by Protestants, producing the Geneva Bible, which was a standard Bible in colonial America (preceding the King James Bible). It included the Apocrypha, but the Apocrypha was never considered to be Holy Writ.
Nope.

I don't understand the "nope." It is indeed true that the Protestants made the Bible available to the common person in the common language, thanks to the printing press (which had been around for a long time). The Church of Rome was not engaged in such evangelism. Since they were not offering Bibles to the laity, the default was to keep them within the church. Or, where are all the copies of popular Bibles printed in Latin?
And it is a fact that the Geneva Bible, produced by Protestants and printed in large quantities, included the Apocrypha (but not as Holy Writ). I have a copy and have read it (though the Apocrypha are still on my list, because they are available in digital form, not printed form).
