How did the printing of the Holy Bible weaken the Catholic Church?

.Roman Catholic AnswerGreat heavens, NO. The Catholic Church has been printing the Holy Bible since the invention of a printing press, and for the fourteen centuries before that, thousands of monks spent their whole lives making new Bibles. Keep in mind that it was the Catholic Church that wrote and approved the Bible to begin with. Without the Catholic Church there would be no Bible today, and certainly would have been none around for the protestants to mutilate. As it is, M. Luther removed seven books from the Bible, and tried mightily to alter the New Testament as well, he was foiled in the later attempt by other heretics. The only printing of Holy Bibles that the Church objected to were error filled books claiming to be the complete Bible. Please see the link below for more:

Did the catholic church stifle medieval literature?

No, the Catholic Church did not really stifle medieval literature. There was a reason for this, which was that the literature during the middle ages was copied by hand or memorized, and the church could not really control individual writing literature easily prior to the invention of the printing press. The Catholic Church did stifle preaching, but that was a matter of something happening in public.
