Why were Latin bibles changed to English?

So that English speaking people could read and understand them


What language did the protestant not want the bible written in?

Latin. It's not that they didn't like it in Latin, they just wanted it in German because then ordinary people would be able to read it. Latin was only spoken and read by the educated (The Catholic Church) or the very rich. All Bibles were written in Latin because the priests and monks would read it to the people at Mass. Martin Luther (Protestant leader) didn't like this because the priests could say ridiculous things, say it came from the Bible, and people wouldn't know better. Using the recent invention of the printing press, he published Bibles in German and his most famous work, 95 Thesis. Since he could easily spread his word with mass produced letters, he told everyone that the Pope was misleading people.


Is there any proof that Christianity is true?

No. There is absolutely no proof Christianity is true. You can check the geology records, the fossil records, and the history books; there is absolutely no proof. Most people try to refute this claim by saying read the bible. But, it turns out that only 1 in 10 Christains actually have read the bible. And still, they believe reading the bible will automatically turn people into Christains. When actually, a good portion of the people who have read it turn AWAY from Christianity.


Can people learn how to read bar codes?

Yes, years ago I broke both the UPC and Postal barcode systems with no prior knowledge of their encoding systems and for a while after breaking them could read them visually (however I'm out of practice now and would have to refresh myself on both).
