I am pleased that you acknowledge the fact that the vast majority of Catholics, especially throughout Europe, do not attend mass regularly and therefore are living in a state of mortal sin.
I would not know if any specific person was in mortal sin or not. It really isn't my business. So You are mistaken when you assert "I am pleased that you acknowledge the fact that the vast majority of Catholics, ... are living in a state of mortal sin". Catholics say that "For a sin to be mortal, three conditions must together be met: "Mortal sin is sin whose object is grave matter and which is also committed with full knowledge and deliberate consent." " It would be very hard to know if not attending mass on Sundays was happening under the conditions mentioned. But if you are privy to such information for the "vast majority of Catholics" then you apparently have nearly obtained omniscience for yourself. That is not likely to be true so I suspect that what you say is a "fact" is really only an opinion that is not well founded.
For those who do attend mass regularly my assertion still applies. Not long ago I wanted to upload copies of the questionable books to my computer and went to a popular Catholic website to do so. To my great surprise none of them were available although the other 66 were.
The Vatican web site has a link to a bible in English. I think that of all the Catholic web sites in the world the Vatican one is the most widely known. Did you check it? Here's a link for the bible that they recommend.
Books of the Bible
How curious. The Catechism of the Catholic Church lists all the books of the bible. If the people running the site you contacted do not know what books are in the bible then maybe they are not Catholics. Would you tell us which site it was, please?I called the people who were responsible for the site and they had never heard of these books. I had to explain to them what they were.
