Just asking questions which you refuse to answer.
(You reply - normally with a question - but do not answer mine)

I'm interested in the thoughts of theists, not in their beliefs, but why they have them.

Which question have I refused to answer?

Let's start with the very first question I asked.
Do you agree with all the additions to the Protestant bible?
Which clearly has a YES or NO answer but I will allow you some GREY in between.

Remember ... it is in the context of your opening post.

If you believe the Bible is trustworthy and is God's revelation to mankind it means you have to believe all of it. You can't pick and choose what you like. If for example you choose only to take the words that Jesus spoke and yet you reject the words of the apostles it means you may as well reject everything because it means you don't trust the scriptures. If you don't trust all of it you may as well trust none of it.

What additions were made to the Protestant Bible? Or do you mean exclusions? Get your facts straight. 🙄

Some Protestant Bibles contain the deuterocanonical books.
But also as you point out are missing many books that the Catholic Bible contains.

I see you still don't want to answer anything.

What additions were made to the Catholic Bible by the protestants?

You asked whether I agree with the additions made to the Protestant Bible? I'm asking you which 'additions', were made to the Catholic Bible to form the Protestant Bible?
