Looks like he was right percentage wise at least. But, the amazing thing about the British empire was the size of the British population. Great Britian was a tiny country with a relatively small population, yet look at the size of the empire they created. That is what is impressive to me.

I never questioned it was the largest in area (mostly because of Canada and Australia), but it never ruled over a percentage of the world's population of more than 20%, which is less than many other empires.

You guys keep bringing up 'population'.

How much of the world spoke English in 1611? yet we believe the AV1611 is meant for everyone.
Don't you mean the KJV1611? Is it really meant for everyone? I thought it was meant for English speakers.

And for the record, 100% of the world spoke English at one time -- in my opinion.
I think we can safely say your opinion on this matter is rejected by everyone else here.

I think you're right -- but that's what happens when people don't think Biblically.

The reference, of course, is to when 100% of the world's population consisted of two people: Adam & Eve.

(Now watch'em LOL for another reason -- ;))

There is nothing in the Bible that says the KJV1611 is the best version of the Bible. There is nothing in the Bible that says Adam & Eve spoke English. People come to those conclusions when they don't think Biblically...

I didn't say It is the best, I said it is the only.

That's why I called it 'my 2¢'.

What conclusion should I come to, then?

Regarding this subject? That they spoke whatever language was spoken back then, which was not English.

Oh, and if there is such a thing as one only Bible, I would say it should be the closest to the original as possible, which again was not English.

And somehow he got through the public school system and still believes this nonsense.

I really don't see you thinking biblically with this everyone spoke English idea.

IThe reference, of course, is to when 100% of the world's population consisted of two people: Adam & Eve.

The same Adam that wrote GEN? ;)

To imply that Gods speak English is proof positive that creationism damages the brain.
Are you some kind of psychoanalyst or something?

If so, is that question on your personality evaluation?
