There are some examples that come to mind. For example the "virgin" Mary and certain properties of Jesus. It's a fact that at some point women became too powerful because of what was written in the bible about Mary and it's the one reason why 'Jesus' became 'the son of God'.
that's not a fact. that's something you've heard.

We have had a reprint of the Dutch Bible just a year ago and it's very different. The whole ancient language thing has been converted to something 'modern'.
who cares? there are so many different translations. there are quite a few that have no numbered verses because they change the structure of it too much so it could be written in more modern language.
a few times experts wondering how damaging these different translations are have compared popular modern translations with the oldest scriptures available and only really had disputes over 1 in every 10 000 words.
anyway, this isn't a hilbert's hotel thread. it's not a general religious argument thread. it's a thread discussing thoughts on the 7 new deadly sins.
