Do Protestants read the Catholic bible?

[cheezey]

most protestants i know would not own a catholic bible. the would prefer a King James Bible or any other protestant Bible. i asked one friend of mine who is a baptist to read the book of Tobit. i told her what a wonderful book it was. you would have thought i had asked her to pull her teeth out. she never read it. i gave up asking. i don’t know if she thought she would be struck down if she read one of the deuterocannonical books, but she was not even interested in investigating.

I have so many Bibles, it’s almost silly. In a good way, of course.

In this one instance, she might just have been disinterested, period. Like I’d be with general history books. Blach!
Not all people are curious.
I am.

The Bible class for the Baptist college I went to required the “extra” books. (AKA I did just fine with my mad Bible skills from years of Catholic school).
