You misunderstand what I said... I said that the Protestant Bible contains only books that are ALSO in the Catholic Bible. That is, the Catholic church agrees that all 66 of the books in the Protestant Bible belong in the Bible. The disagreement is over what is NOT in the Protestant Bible but is in the Catholic Bible.

The Catholic Bible includes books that the Protestants do not accept as part of the canon. Examples: Tobit, Judith, 1 & 2 Maccabees, Sirach, etc.

But all books that the Protestants accept are also accepted by the Catholics.
