Nothing has been removed from the true Bible. The 73 inspired books were defined once and for all time by the Catholic Church at the end of the 4th Century, and not a word has been added to or deleted from the true Bible since that time.
Of course the Protestant Bible is missing 7 books because their founder, Martin Luther, discarded them, even though they had been used by every Christian on earth during the 1,200 years preceding. He fully intended to discard three New Testament books also, but his followers simply wouldn't buy that, so he backed off and left the New Testament intact. The incomplete Protestant Bible therefore has only 66 books instead of the 73 inspired books of the true Bible; and if their founder had his way, they would have only 63 books.

Granted that the councils were selective as to which books they accepted as inspired, and this removed certain topics. For example the psuedo Apocalypse of Peter addressed curses upon women who have an abortion, but this was written long after Peter had died. The Gnostic Gospels, written long after the four canonical Gospels have different doctrinal views that aren't compatible with the Synoptics and Paul's letters, and positive views of female disciples the Roman church would not like. We have thousands of fragments to compare, and we can identify late redactions, like Mark 16:9ff, verses which do not appear in the earliest versions, as well as several revisions of John's gospel up through the fifth century. But I don't have a sense that specific topics were excised since we have found thousands of early fragments since the Vulgate and the King James was written based on fewer copies. Literary criticism is a fairly exact technique that would reveal such tampering.

Well, for starters, God's name , Jehovah. Compare Psalm 83; 18 in the King James version AV and then the New internation version which replaces it with LORD.

Paul continuing to keep the Feast of Sukkot:
Acts 18:21 But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this Feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.
The newer Bibles remove that part about keeping the Feast.

the book of enoch was not included, even though it had been condsidered the word of god for centuries and is mentioned by other bible characters ... even in the new testement ...
also "Jasher" , i think ... it was mentioned by other bible characters, yet later DROPPED
there are many other religious texts that were not included for whatever various reasons
also, several subjects/conversations concerning women (important women....and they couldnt have that!!!)
----------
additional : the christians who answered "nothing is missing" dont know much about their own religion. weird, huh

The gospel of Judas, which shows Judas as a good guy and Mary Magdeline as a possible romantic interest to Jesus.
Other gospels written by women. And who knows what happened to any accounts of Jesus between 12 and 30.
Like your costume!
