Anything that has changed outside of my Bible doesn't concern me, they're trivial at most. I know what I know about words in my KJV Bible that have been changed supernaturally, and I know that I'm not alone. Why only some see it and not others I haven't a clue, but God does. He's the one who will let the god of this world do his deceiving until the appointed time. I know what I know

It basically seems to me to be when a group of people are given the option of two conclusions: they are misquoting/incorrectly remembering, or, reality has altered. Then they go with the latter conclusion. It would be shocking to me, but these days nothing humans think or believe shocks me any more. These days I'm shocked beyond belief when someone makes sense.

One of the funniest(saddest?) videos I saw(was forced to painfully watch) was a guy showing the label as it "used to be" compared to the label as it "now is" and claiming that reality had changed. Somehow no one bothered asking(or, even thinking) if reality changed, where did he get the example of how it "used to be"? I was like this:

Then when I noticed my friend was looking at me with a baffled seriousness; I was like this:

Even if it were real, I wouldn't at all be impressed with the knowledge that somewhere out there are infinite versions of me buying Jiffy instead of Jif.
Baffled is one word to explain the feeling knowing that a change had in fact taken place. Anything that has changed outside of my Bible doesn't concern me, they're trivial at most. I know what I know about words in my KJV Bible that have been changed supernaturally, and I know that I'm not alone. Why only some see it and not others I haven't a clue, but God does.

I too have experienced this. Those that have not experienced this will think we are all nuts.
I was raised in a Regular Baptist home, by a regular baptist minister. To the regular baptist there is only one bible it is the KJV. If anyone had brought in an NIV and even read from it they would have been banned or tossed out.
We said verses hundreds and hundreds of times over and over. We were taught to memorize everything we could to "hide the word in our hearts". I had not read a Greek or Hebrew bible till well in to my 20's so there is no way I would have mis construed a translation. I am not a regular baptist now into my 50's but I am telling you it has changed. Those of you that are saying it has always been historically that way are missing the point. In your history it has always been the same so no amount of logic will change your minds. For me and for countless others the Mandela effect especially on the KJV bible is real. The Lord's prayer to us did READ trespasses in Matthew and actually said Debts in Luke. It was absolutely the Lion and the lamb not just in Isaiah but also in hundreds of old songs we sang. The word Matrix was always womb and was never used in place of womb. It was consuder the sparrows never the Ravens. I am not mis remebering for us it has changed. I have no idea how or why I just believe it is likely supernatural and like some it means we are nearing the end.
Those that disagree are not seeing it and will think we are nuts but it is vety very real.

Yes, I have, along with others I know. But my husband always remembers correctly, he has an amazing memory.

I was watching some guy on YouTube saying some of us are from another universe because some of us remember things different. But some things I remember wrong and the others I remember "right for this universe ". So, am I multi personality, some of whom are from other universes? Or do humans just have notoriously horrible memories? I'm going to go with the later, at least for right now, I have studied about this. It is terrifying how unreliable our memories are and how easy and fast it is to manipulate them or even produce whole cloth 100% fake memories.

I never have. But then my memory is good enough and my ego strong enough that I can admit I simply had something wrong when my memory is not perfect.

Sometimes things do change, but they almost always leave footprints.

Not that long ago I heard the song Lola by The Kinks. The openiong lione was:

I met her in a bar down in old Soho, where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola....

No that wasn't right, it was Coca Cola. I was sure, Mandela effect for sure!

Nope with just a little digging it came out that using Coca Cola was copyright infringement and they had to pull the original and rerecord it. But the records already sold did not magically disappear and if one tries long enough they can find teh original on U-tube!

I have a terrible memory. I'm anxious, I have ADHD and dyslexia. Yeah, some of the things also shown was a photo of Monroe, but she was a lot thinner than in other pictures from decades ago. It is called editing because "we" find thinner more attractive now. Then there were some civil wars photos in color before color photograph. Again, we can do that now with editing, but I know this particular one was actually colored in with colored pencils (and sometimes other materiel) at the time period. Years ago I read a history of art book, sadly, I can't remember the name, and they had that same example. It does look very realistic. They did a good job. It does look a little odd, but you'd just assume it is because they are very old photos.

And yet another. My wife and I remembers Rodin's sculpture "The Thinker" with a clenched fist under his chin, but that is no longer the case.

Rodin himself apparently described it that way too:

“What makes my thinker think is that he thinks not only with his brain, with his knitted brow, his distended nostrils and compressed lips,” Rodin noted, “but with every muscle of his arms, back, and legs, with his clenched fist and gripping toes.”

I'd assume you were mistaken rather than transported to another universe.

We also live in a micro-criticised and micro-corrected society where things are published daily, so there is this strange sort of drift in modern publication. If you keep up with political news especially the amount of people publishing things, then completely changing articles on the sly a day later to try make their opponents look bad, is very high.
