…the truck in front of you has a bumper sticker that says “If it ain’t King James, it ain’t Bible.”

I have to say, I feel really bad for those disciples in the first century with their silly parchments/scrolls/whatever in the original Greek and Hebrew. It would be another 1600 years or so until all the books were translated into Shakespearian-sounding English! That’s a long time to make it without a real Bible.

Anyone else see anything that left you scratching your head on the way to work?

you forgot to mention how King James inserted his own preferences into the Shakespearian English.

or that theologians who have studied the content of the Bible in its various translations admit that the King James Version has the most errors.

There are a lot of bumper stickers in the area that also say “In case of rapture, this vehicle will be unmanned” or something like that.
