Because it may very well be true in the US & other countries. I was trying to be exact.

instead of trying, be!

 

[UCA4J]

Why not? No one really knew which animal was being specifically mentioned. For all we know that creature became extinct. And in any event, this matter is of little or no consequence.

a rhino is not a unicorn.

 

[John146]

Are your truth implying that God indeed created "unicorns"?

If it's in the holy Bible then I believe it.

 

[John146]

Wait a minute you keep saying -every word matters. Are there unicorns then? EVERY word.

If it's in the holy Bible then I believe it.

 

[John146]

a rhino is not a unicorn.

You mean, a rhino is not the mythical, magical unicorn that the world has made it out to be.

Perhaps the KJV is not the mythical, magical translation you believe it is.

what penal colony ?
My ancestry is Portuguese.
The poms aren't my friends 😆

I've never heard anyone other than an Aussie call us Poms before.

I'm pretty sure a rhino doesnt look or act, like a unicorn.
A 🦏 is grey, correct ?

😆😆😆 do you need to get out more ?

In SA we also talk about the Poms when we battle the English rugby and cricket teams... but I know it is not a term of endearment and is disrespectful.

No worries. I don't take it all that seriously. Some people really don't like us, that's life. I left out Kiwis too, I think they might call us Poms sometimes. Rugby fans from all nations are some of the best behaved fans I've ever witnessed though.

I don't use the term Poms but I know many people that will say it when discussing rugby and cricket. Maybe it is a bit of sledging.....

According to Scripture or the world?

I wonder why the new versions did not update the word "dung"? They totally change it to rubbish, trash, garbage, etc...

Make up your mind what you are shocked about will you?

Is it that rubbish, trash, garbage, waste, refuse & dung heaps are all the same thing but you want a smaller vocabulary?
Or is it that a current Bible translation didn't use the same term as early modern English for excrement?
Or is it that 'dung' is neither a Greek nor a Hebrew word?

Or is your latest nit-picking grievance just a pile of crap?

Using the word crap or another 4 letter word would be more genius in the new versions than rubbish.

This is nothing more than an excremental attempt to demean other translations.
