Curious if your stance extends to the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. Founded in 330AD, it predates all other canonization councils:
The Council of Trent (1545–1563) - explicitly laid out the 73-book canon for the Catholic Church
Council of Rome (382)
Synod of Hippo (393)
The two of the Councils of Carthage (397 and 419 respectively)
Council of Florence (1431–1449)
Applying your standard literally, the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church and the Ethiopian Bible are the only true Christian religion and religious text because others have fewer or greater number of books.
It sounds like you're ok with adding books to the bible so long as you're the one doing it. If you're not willing to accept the consequences of your own rules, they aren't rules, they're justifications.

None of that remotely resembles the Book of Mormon, so honestly you are just really shitty at whatever you are trying to do.
