Sometimes I get the feeling that ChrissTodd und Schultz are the same person. But maybe it is the Matrix or they just share the same consciousness. It's obvious that they think very much alike.. theoretically they could be one person indeed though, I must admit.

That's the one, right there. Is the long list of per-versions supposed to strike fear in our hearts. 200+ people could take up the notion to revise Shakespeare if they wanted to. Would that mean the one true, perfect word of Shakespeare would cease to exist? Of course not. God preserved his word in English through the King James Bible, without error.

True perfect word of Shakespeare? You do know he had a habit of actually stealing/borrowing other people's work? Also.. unlike the Bible, Shakespeare's work was originally written in (albeit a bit older version of..) English. God preserved his word in English through the King James Bible, without error.
Because God was born in modern times and was raised with English??? Last time I checked, wasn't the 'word' given to people in Hebrew and later translated into English and so on? I apologize for being blunt, but I find your statements rather ironic. Cheers

God preserved his word in English through the King James Bible, without error. What is the history behind the KJV? What was the procedure under which is was fabricated? I've done my internet research on the subject, but I'd like to not rely on the internet and hear what your opionions or facts are on the subject of the creation of this version of the bible. Please emphasize how this procedure created an "error free" translation (keyword: "the telephone game") as well as what the political, social, and religious environment of the time was in order to provide some context to the procedure.

Last time I checked, wasn't the 'word' given to people in Hebrew and later translated into English and so on? Well, if you had paid attention to the modern English, I said he preserved His word. BTW, God was not born period, He is from everlasting to everlasting. The point in the Shakespeare example was not whether the words he originally penned were good/perfect, it was whether or not we have the words he originally penned. The example fails in many areas, since it leaves the preservation (or keeping) up to man. God's word was preserved by Him (he did not leave it up to man to preserve His word perfect through the ages and into different languages). It's nothing for the creator of the universe to do this though.
