What about a sub-section for the non-canical works?

Shlama Akhi Dave,

The Reformation had many benefits to many people in Europe. All I ask is that you keep in mind that we are talking about a small part of the Church at that time.

There was an entire continent in which there were no Dark Ages, in which the Roman Catholic Church was practically non-existent, where no indulgences were sold - and where there was no such concept as Papal Infallibility (or a "Pope" for that matter.) In Asia no "Reformation" was needed, nor has one ever happened.

In fact, when Europe was in the "Dark Ages" - the Middle East and the rest of Asia were at the height of civilization and all sorts of advancements. Today, it's reversed again.

I think part of the reason why people have never heard of the Aramaic NT is because this community was nearly wiped out, and the only stronghold of Christianity left standing was in Europe. History only concentrates on that part of the Church Universal.

But if we lived 700 years ago, actually any time during the first 1300 years, it would have been a completely different picture - one in which the largest Church in the world was Aramaic-based, etc.
