If Jules Verne had written it, at least it might have made a bit of sense.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

I think that the English wrote parts of it as a joke. That's why it has so many discrepancies. Would a truly deity-inspired book be so full of B.S.? And don't forget that the English had their own native religion traditions. So they had a motive for sabotaging the foreign Christian religion.

Huh? What does the fact that the Bible is mythological have to do with your erroneous unsubstantiated claim that the Wycliffe translation is anything but the first Bible transcribed into the English language?

Do you have an earlier English translation?

Re-read my last post and you'll know the answer to that because I've said it half a dozen times already.

Will you be so kind as to highlight what you consider to be an earlier English translation? Your assistance will be appreciated.
