Will the Real Catechism of Pius X Please Stand Up?
It's well known that the American Baltimore catechism of the 1800s had BOD and BOB in there, and the US bishops included them, not rome. It would not be surprising that the US Bishops inserted BOD and BOB into Pius X's catechism as well.
On the website of the Museo San Pio X in Salzano (Venezia) there are digital transcripts of three versions of what is called "Catechism of Pius X" includingIl Catechismo di don Giuseppe Sarto, Arciprete di SalzanoScanning the text for "batt"esimo (baptism), "sang"ue (blood), and "desi"derio (desire) I could not find any reference to BoB or BoD. The other two later versions found on that site do talk about Battesimo di sangue, Battesimo di desiderio, desiderio almeno implicito etc.
