> explain what qualifies a literal man who gets to decide which books are and are not "god's" word. a single solitary man didn't. the pre-nicene fathers of the church had multiple quotations from the books we think of as both the old and new testaments. yes, eventually the roman church did "canonize" the scripture, but it was agreed on, and testified to before that.  > explain to me the the council of nicaea 325 ce plenty of evidence out there to educate yourself on. crib notes, it was a council to resolve the controversy over arianism, a heresy that taught that jesus was a created being and not divine. nothing at the council of nicaea decided which books were going to be in the canon of scripture.
