There is no such thing as The Bible

Your lengthy expose, Brian, proves just one thing : you've done a lot of research into material supporting your spiritual position regarding God and His Word.I could provide ten, nay, one-hundred times the support for the validity of the AKJ 1611 Version than the 'evidence' against it that you present here - of course, I won't waste my time or yours. It is painfully evident that you have no desire for arriving at the truth in this issue, only in supporting your position.Therefore, I'll just list two very basic sources where you may become better educated on the matter and leave it at that:1. Article by Dr. Allan A. MacRae, "The Canon of Scripture: Can We Be Sure Which Books Are Inspired By God?"2. Chapters 1-4 of Josh McDowell's "The New Evidence That Demands a Verdict"The evidence is so overwhelmingly abundant and clear as to the authenticity and validity of THE Bible as the AKJ 1611 Version that it boggles my mind how people miss it... but they always find a way to do so."We believe whatever we want to believe." - Demosthenes, 348 B.C.
How very true for us all.Joralex

I always love it when I hear this one :"I do not acknowledge a spiritual side to my existence, so this argument in invalid." Haven't you figured out yet that there is no "neutral" position on spirituality? IOW, it's not "Have or have not" (as you obviously believe), rather it's "I subscribe to this metaphysic or to that one". That people may escape from a metaphysical position is one of greatest myths being parroted.To make this even clearer, you appear to subscribe to a Naturalistic metaphysic, a.k.a. Philosophical Naturalism. That, Brian, is the "spiritual side" to your existence and it is every bit as metaphysical as the beliefs held by the Snake Worshippers of Bali. Only problem is, you don't recognize it as such. But don't worry, you have lots of company in your beliefs.
