Let me see if I understand you here. You seem to be saying that in this case an absence of the originals (evidence) is evidence that there were originals. To say that in more concise terms, you're saying an absence of evidence is evidence. That can't be what your saying otherwise I must insist you're retarded.

the oldest existing hebrew text are the silver amulets. i don't see where you're going with this though. just because the original copies don't exist means the bible is changed? it means they were written in greek? the fact is they are still jewish/hebrew texts and that's why i referenced the hebrew. and just because the originals aren't there doesn't make the remakes any less valid.
and answers.com is not my only reference. i have many others.
