The invention and use of the printing press made bibles and other literature available to those people who could read.
The printing press
There is no definitive number of Bibles that have been made since the first one was printed in the 15th century. However, it is estimated that billions of copies have been produced and distributed worldwide over the centuries, making it one of the most widely circulated books in history.
No, bibles are made everyday and are still read throughout all the earth. Although this is a fact I wish more people would come to their sences and get to reading the book that surpases all others.
There are more than 100,000,000 bibles world wide.
More importantly, how many of the purchased Bibles were actually read? My guess is that many more Bibles were sold than were actually read.
You can find Catholic bibles for sale in lot groups on websites like eBay, Amazon, Catholic bookstores, or through wholesalers who specialize in religious merchandise. Additionally, you can check with local churches or parish offices to see if they sell or can suggest where to purchase bulk Catholic bibles.

Yes Bibles were allowed. In fact, Bibles were encouraged. MORE INFO Children were often taught to read from the bible . This was true for the Quaker families and the bible was often the only book in the house.
There's more at the top of the food chain because there's more animals and food lower down.
Yes, Bibles are updated through the years because the vocabulary of people change as years pass, and some words that are used in older versions of the Bible, are not commonly used in present time. For example, if you say something is cool nowadays it means that it is stylish, or funky, but back then it was just cold, or chill. Different Bibles, such as different versions, or Bibles for kids or for teens, will use different vocabulary to get the message more clear according to whom they refer to. Also different religions have different Bibles. For example the Christian Bible, will not be the same as the Catholic Bible, because they are different religions.
More than we could ever count.
