Such refinements were not used in ancient manuscripts. On top of that it's written on paper as well as being out of focus so that it can't be examined in detail.1) I provided 4 separate nearly complete copies of the Old/New Testaments that date to or prior to the 5th century. You talk as if your brain only has the ability to process the existence of one. Derp. 2) Find me one accredited scholar, or really anyone besides yourself, who doubts the authenticity of either of the four I linked to. I mean someone who can provide actual arguments supported by facts and not simple assertions as believers such as yourself are keen to do. You, like your fellow fundamentalists, usually fail to cite even a single credible piece of evidence for your claims. It's not interesting. Therefore, I---as any sane, rational person would agree---can justifiably ignore them. 3) Your original claim is that the English wrote the Bible in the 14th (?) century, yet there are thousands of references to the Bible and direct quotations from numerous other writers for over a millennia before that. Therefore, like a young earth creationist, or worse, you're literally just denying reality because it doesn't conform to your blind faith. 4) You're getting to be very boring, and quickly.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
Quote:“When I was out those 20 minutes, I saw a man who had long ruffled hair and kind of a thick beard, and it didn’t take me long to realize that that was Jesus,” he said. I wonder if St Peter gets pissed every time someone sees him and confuses him with Jesus.
How come they always see jesus and not the devil? Just once, I'd like them to come back and say they saw flames and suffering.

I have a very good friend who is a nutty baptist and when we were discussing this one time I made the same observation. She said: "What about JESUS. And Julius Caesar!!!" She accepted the explanation about Caesar ( Iulius) but still thinks that jesus' mailbox said "Jesus Christ and Family." So, there are some who simply cannot think outside the box.
Easy to trick jesus freaks. They demand to be tricked.
