Hi Lel

Are these appropriate as encouraging Scripture?

Not in the slightest, but I figure it's all the word of God. (I'm occasionally obnoxious too. ;) )

quotes[39] = "Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.";
authors[39] = "2 Corinthians 9:15";

I do have a question :)

Are we allowed to "translate" the bible for the purposes of using it on here?

For example:
And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.
Becomes
And this commandment have we from him, That he who loves God love his brother also.

(To make it less "formal" language")
