Some people just read the bible, and come away disgusted instead of awe inspired. I guarantee you that if you look hard enough, you'll find another seventh day adventist that will tell you that you have it all wrong.

You mean that if your child fails the english exam, he or she could use that excuse - "everyone has their own interpretation..." 

Or should it be "evury wun haz thair owne entirpretashion."

The Bible has been accurately translated and printed in English.

Sorry, your argument fails when it comes to reading and comprehension of the Bible.
If that english exam was about interpreting the works of a book full of metaphor and allegory, and the teacher failed my kid because he interpreted things differently than the teacher did, then there would be an argument there. If there's no concrete evidence available saying "this is definitely what the author intended".
I believe you mean that translations of the bible have been translated into english, because there are no original manuscripts to directly translate into our language. It's copies of copies. even the dead sea scrolls, which may be the oldest writings we have, weren't original. So yeah, I find the english translations skeptical.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
