King James is the real Bible.

The writers of the "Conservative" bible also claim that theirs is the only accurate version.

Can you people have a civil war to get your religion back on track?

Just leave the rest of us out of it.

This fellow wrote a book called God's Secretaries: The Making of the King James Bible  He's too much of a fan of the damned thing for my tastes and he slides over some of the inherent problems with the translations used for the KJV but this video will answer your questions.

There are original notes and papers dealing with the process although they are kept in university libraries and obviously not accessible to the general public.  Perhaps you should read his book?

[Cyberman]

Perhaps he should read a book.

[Joods]

Lol I don't see that happening

[Minimalist]

Perhaps he should read a book.

I think his problem is that he needs to read a different book.

[bennyboy]

Perhaps he should read a book.

I'm pretty sure he's read one.  I would encourage him to read two books.

[Cyberman]

I'm highly dubious he's even read that magic book, at least more than his favourite fap fodder bits.

Now come up with a site that refutes this on.

This is not how it works. You're the one claiming that, not only is the buy-bull true, but the KJV is the best, truest version. It's up to you to prove it. It's called the burden of proof. It belongs to him that is making the positive claim. We allow no shifting of the burden here.

Evidence for your claim or STFU!

Here's a bible-thumping idiot who understands that the KJV is deeply flawed.

Second, the Greek text which stands behind the King James Bible is demonstrably inferior in certain places. The man who edited the text was a Roman Catholic priest and humanist named Erasmus.1 He was under pressure to get it to the press as soon as possible since (a) no edition of the Greek New Testament had yet been published, and (b) he had heard that Cardinal Ximenes and his associates were just about to publish an edition of the Greek New Testament and he was in a race to beat them. Consequently, his edition has been called the most poorly edited volume in all of literature! It is filled with hundreds of typographical errors which even Erasmus would acknowledge.

The problem is that the King James Bible is filled with readings which have been created by overly zealous scribes!

Oh dear.  Poor god failed to exercise proper management yet again!

I can honestly say that I've read the entire Bible from cover-to-cover-- even the Behoozeebee begat Hebeezeboo parts.  It's honestly a pretty interesting book when taken as a sampling of ancient ideas and interests.  There's much wisdom and good counsel in the Bible, and a lot of truly great fantasy.  LSD + Revelations = Wow!
