LearningtoBreath63 immanuelkant There are a few reasons that I know of why they are not included in every edition. First, Jesus said that all the Bible was about him, and those books have no prophecies, no mentions, and no geneology of the coming Messiah whatsoever. Second, some of the books (like Maccabies) cannot be proven by scholars as actually happening. Most agree that it may have happened that way and that it is a good story, but overall (I would believe it's true if I believed it was actually inspired) the story doesn't have anything to do with the rest of the flow of the Bible and seems out of place. And lastly, a few passages of these books have been used to support "strange" beliefs in the Catholic Church (some of the ones that you've said you don't quite agree with) and have been kept so that these beliefs may remain in the Cathecism. That's all I've got, I'm sure there's more though. but none of the bible can nessacarilly be proven. the only fact we actually know is that jesus is real. everything else is faith. also, the old testament isn't about jesus at all
oh, you have much to learn. 3nodding Even the ceremonial laws in Leviticus are prophecies of Jesus death.
