Not going to argue with you on this because Marcion did the same thing, the RCC does the same thing, as do so many other false teachers and denominations. (not saying Eusebius was one).

The Biblical books are in the canon because the church at that time recognized them as authoritative and scripture. No one man had a say in the matter because God had already written the books using men to do so. Just because one man made a selection doesn't mean those books are scripture and the rest were not. They were selected as quoted in my previous post. personal opinion doesn't change that fact.

We are endlessly entertained by you "christians' denouncing eachother for being false, and patting yourselves on the back for the remarkable luck of having the one true faith!

What is so hilarious is that you can do it totally dead pan. You really mean it!

How DID you get so lucky and / or smart as to get the one true faith, anyhow?

An Amazon review of Latourette's work (via: amazon.co.uk) notes:
Could care less what a review says especially from amazon. i find nothing wrong with the book and that is good ebnough for me. you will get what i give you when it comes to references.

Those who laugh last... The Bible declares who is false and who isn't, so it has nothing to do with me denouncing anyone.

And it is written that if the blind follow the blind then they'll all fall into the ditch.
