What book has the most history?

RE: What book has the most history?
Trump may have his issues but at least he's not for late term abortions, i mean I'm pro choice but not at 9 months, NY Law added a health exception, which means a woman can go in at birth and claim depression and abort the baby, not a fetus at that point. Checkmate!

Remember partial birth abortion in the late 90s? Bill Clinton wouldn't sign the bill without a health exception but that's just code language to mean anything, you can kill a full born baby at 9 months b/c your "depressed". WOW

Pretty much any comic book.

So now we are into abortion?

I really hate this bullshit assumption by the pro birth right, that pro choice advocates knock on doors selling abortions like a keg at a frat party. We do not  value choice like it is a frat party. If you want to reduce abortions, you don't do it by outlawing it. You do it by FAMILY PLANNING, education, and female empowerment. The vast majority of Planned Parenthood is providing health care screenings to females, not abortion. 

And don't sit there and falsely accuse abortion providers of wanting to kill a baby in womb that late just for fun. That is nonsense. There are issues of health to the female, and even cases of rape and incest.

And who died and left you boss to decide for everyone when life begins? Hate to burst your bubble, but an egg is alive by itself, so by your logic, a period is genocide. By your logic masturbation, and blowjobs are genocide because sperm are also alive.

And even if I agreed with forcing birth on females, which I do not, who is going to take care of them if the female cant or doesn't want to? We don't have enough families to adopt already born children.

Yes.  Churchill's 'A History Of The English-Speaking Peoples', although I don't know why I'm bothering to tell you this, since I banned you a few minutes ago for being a sock.

Does the King James version have more history in it than other translations? LOL!

Short Answer: Archeology.
Long Answer: Archeology, bitches!

If your area of history can't be verified without a book that talks about talking donkeys, zombies who are their own father, and people who can live to be 969 years old, it might not be all that historical!

A surprisingly large number of Christians actually think that. Or to be more precise, other versions of the Bible are inferior either because modern translations are corrupted by more recently discovered manuscripts, or because the people who translated it did so with a specific ideology in mind. Or maybe because of the beautiful prose and poetry of that version, but since that's the reason that holds up the best, it's the one that those KJV-Onlyists tend to not emphasise.
