I think we're nearing the point where this thread will shift from focus on the OP to the regular tit for tat. AdminOmni is already itching to close it, but I think I can hold him back a little longer.

My statement stands. If GOD states something, it is FACT. It is not human thoughts in a mere book, it is not the opinion of a made-up god, it is fact.
Yes, if God were to state something, say, inscribed in flaming letters 100 stories tall in the sky, or burned ruby lambent on the moon, or shouted so the whole world rang like a bell, I'd probably grant that was a fact.
But a printed page that some too-bright-eyed eager believer thrusts under my eyes and insistents is the Word of God--that's another story, and a story that has a thousand variants around the world, with no objective correlative to make any single variant preferable.
Gin up your opinions, folks, because AdminOmni stirs within his Deep Keep, and this thread is about done.
