they want to make the kjv look unreliable because they don't want you to read it!
there are no contradictions in the kjv
and if we are a cosmic accident then there is nothing wrong or right about anything its just our opinion. but even that is just electricity in our brain or sound waves coming out of our mouth. we might as well not exist
Wooooooooooowwwww. Conspiracies, maaaaaannn! GTFOH with that BS.
Who told you there are no contradictions in the KJV? Do you mean A) "no contradictions with reality?" or B) "no internal contradictions", because there are both.
How about basic contradiction type A, where Genesis 30 claims that "clever" Jacob (aka Israel, as renamed at Peniel following an angelic, or possibly godly, wrestling match) managed to become wealthy through his understanding of what we today call Lamarckism, or "heritability of acquired characteristics" from parents to offspring, which is what people thought about how species adapted to their environments before Gregor Mendel discovered genes and genetic inheritance, and Darwin discovered Natural Selection. Lamarckism sounds good, but turns out to be flat wrong. As in, "flat-earth" levels of wrong, being apparently true but not in fact. Yet the entire existence of Israel as a nation is based on this "cleverness" of its patriarch Jacob/Israel, in "knowing" something about how to get spotted sheep by cutting stripes in poplar branches and putting them in front of the water troughs where they mated, which just happens to be a load of complete crap.
Or basic contradiction type B, where there are "no contradictions" between the stories, I'll just refer you to a chart about ONE issue:
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
