There were a few of us who participated in the forum over there and, as you can see, it was a lightning rod for xtian shitwits who just can't get over the fact that their bible is a vile collection of murder, rape and mayhem in honor of their shitty god.
The problem was that the moderator banned fundies at the drop of a hat which kind of diminished the fun factor of playing with them.
I learned to use biblegateway just because, as chippy shows, they are willing to automatically assume that any translation which appears on "Evilbible" must be wrong. So rather than use the EB text I would take the passage in question and run it through an actual bible site and then invite the offending "context moron" to put his god's crimes in whatever context he wished and show me how "good" his god really was? There were surprisingly few takers.
The problem with EB was not his translations...it was his temper.
