If you believe Bible then you must believe the authority who put the Bible together (Catholic Church). According to the Bible, the CHURCH is the pillar of truth: 1 Tim. 3:15, 2 Peter 1:20. We need the church to interpret scripture, not us or else...30,000 christian denominations. thoughts>

did you know that when Bible were fist printed by the printing press that 90% of people couldn't read. Also there weren't many copies around before the press so the Church had to orally preach like in the very early christian days>

The Catholic church did not put the Bible together; it did everything possible to keep people from reading it, including putting it on their list of forbidden books for centuries.
The church is the pillar and ground of the truth; it is to support truth and uphold truth. The Roman Catholic church failed miserably on both counts.
As for your other reference:
2 Peter 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
This doesn't mean, as Catholics teach, that one cannot understand the Bible, but rather speaks of the source of the Scriptures. No man ever sat down and said, "I wonder what I'm going to write as Scripture."
If everybody followed the Bible, nothing added and nothing taken away (Revelation 22:18-19), we would all speak the same things (1 Corinthians 1:10), and there would only be one church. And it wouldn't be the one headquartered in Rome.

We are the church. We being all believers in the body of Christ. Not a priest. Not a minister.
"Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I do my share on behalf of His body, which is the church, in filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions." (Colossians 1:24)
If we all read the scripture and studied it and discussed it, I think you'd find we'd all agree on a lot more. People follow denominations generally not because one is more Biblical than the other, but because it suits their needs or wants or expectations.
