                       Queen Mary I of England was named after Henry VIII's sister, Mary Tudor (Queen Consort of France and Duchess of Suffolk).       
                       Mary I liked to be painted with her Italian greyhounds at her feet.

This is the traditional Catholic bible that I refer to. There is another traditionalist forum that when they quote from the bible they always quote from the Latin as well as the vernacular. However it is a French language forum.

This is a good to hear of. I hope all the more that progress can be made on the original Douai / Vulgate project.

The world’s largest Bible factory is located in China and has printed 125 million Bibles since 1987, according to the Financial Times.

The Amity Foundation, a government-sanctioned Protestant organization, has printed 66 million for China’s Christians and 59 million for foreign markets, according to the report.

'32 Q.  What should a Christian do who has been given a Bible by a Protestant or by an agent of the Protestants?

A.  A Christian to whom a Bible has been offered by a Protestant or an agent of the Protestants should reject it with disgust, because it is forbidden by the Church. If it was accepted by inadvertence, it must be burnt as soon as possible or handed in to the Parish Priest.'

                       I learned Christological means of or pertaining to the study of Christ.     
                       There was a book entitled The Christological Controversy (Sources of Early Christian Thought).

I wouldn't think that, it appears aimed at corrupted translations and commentary.
