Tyranny of the Protestant Bible

The Church tries to fit Christ into it, not the Church into Christ; so only those writings were preserved that suited the purpose in hand. 
Thus the books are not to be depended upon and 
book-worship is the worst kind of idolatry to bind our feet.

All has to conform to the book -- science, religion, philosophy; it is the most horrible tyranny, this tyranny of the Protestant Bible. 
Every man in Christian countries has a huge cathedral on his head and on top of that a book, and yet man lives and grows! 
Does not this prove that man is God?
