You mean preserved-and-copied; preserved-and-copied; preserved and copied?Yep. Scripture.
Copied from a copy, then copied from a copy, then copied from a copy, then copied from a copy, then copied from a copy, then copied from a copy X 1000 = KJV.
Exactly.You mean preserved-and-copied; preserved-and-copied; preserved and copied?
I've take one of the most controversial passages in all of Scripture --- the Johanine Comma --- and copy-and-paste'd it from every translation, starting with the AV700 Anglo-Saxon → AV1389 Wycliffe → AV1525 Tyndale ... AV1611 King James; and shown it to have passed through history with ΔH[sub]Bible[/sub] = 0 accuracy.

There you go again, you know my policy AV. Tsk, tsk.
I can't believe you, of all people, would ask that.Who gives a rodent's posterior about a single passage? What does it prove?
Well, I'm sorry to hear that Soul Searcher.AV.. Just so you know I never bother to click on those little QV links you often post. My position is if you are not willing to take the time to write what you want to say then I'm not going to waste my time reading it.

If Satan can't get the Johanine Comma out of the Bible, no one can.
Wanna know how to know if a burglar's probably been in your house or not?
Place a $1.00 bill on the stand next to the door.
If it's there when you get back, chances are --- no burglar.
If it's gone when you get back, chances are --- burglar.

I have made the same points so many times in the past, that I usually QV people to my post or thread.
I especially get accused of never having said something (like, "I'm sorry" or changing my mind) by newbies that show up, and that gets aggravating.
Some time ago, I was in a jocular mood, and I showed from the Bible how we Christians were blamed by Nero for the earth's magnetic field reversing itself in AD 58.
One poster called me to task on it, and I said it was a joke.
When he didn't believe me, I qv'd him to a post that, just by coincidence, happened to be posted exactly one year ago to the day.
That made the accuser backtrack, then accuse me of doing it as an anniversary joke.
Yes, Nothing personal but my feeling is unchanged. At the very least you should post enough text to give people reading the current thread a hint as to the content of the link and then they can decide if they want to go that route. Just a number though? Perhaps would be better not to post.I hope you see my point.
God a liar or wrong? I've got some breaking news here for you. God did not write the bible but men did. Add to that the fact that God does not interpret it but we do. Both the authors and the interpreters are prone to error especially when they ignore reailty in favor of thier preconceived beliefs.
I think you know that your notion of this drastically different past is nothing more than fiction created by you but are either unable or unwilling to admit it. In either case you would be wise to stop trying to use it as a defense in every post as it only serves to destroy any credability that you may have once had.
Think about it, if there is a God, no one is prone to anything that matters, He will get out the word He wants. Inspiration is something spiritual, and is not limited to those that get the meesage to begin with. The translators and etc also can get inspired. No one can doubt that, without reason, and the only reason anyone will find to doubt it, is their doubts.
In the old testament so much of it is God speaking directly. It is incredible. It would be interesting to see an old testament with all the direct talking of God highlighted. Like the red letter edition for the new testament. So much of both is God directly speaking.
In no way is the future and past described by God, and confirmed somewhat by history, fiction.
Obviously you've made up your mind you're not going there on principle --- hint or no hint?At the very least you should post enough text to give people reading the current thread a hint as to the content of the link and then they can decide if they want to go that route.
And for the record, "repeat" would be a better word here?AV.. Just so you know I never bother to click on those little QV links you often post. My position is if you are not willing to take the time to write what you want to say then I'm not going to waste my time reading it.
