Do any of you realize that the original manuscripts don't exist today?
When you say such and such verse shouldn't be in the bible because it's not in this or that COPY... you have no idea what was in the original.
What if an earlier more accurate copy pops up next year and has 1 John 5:7 verse in it... would you change your mind then?

I'm sorry, we will never know what the Bible could have possibly have been. The library at Alexandria is long burned down. The Bible will and always will be incomplete.
This is way beyond a verse or a a few books. The Bible could have been as big as a library if everything Jesus did was written down. The bible has hardly any details about Christ especially considering that the last hour or more of reading the end of Genesis is all about building a worthless tabernacle...
The Bible is a screwed up book in many ways. It just gets the message across. That is how much we have lost to time. Imagine what we would have if people weren't so invested in their own temporary politics and lies that are long lost in the past.

I understand why the KJV only people say what they do. Without the one true perfect word of God you don't have much. This adds the possibility that anything can be wrong within the book and adding that the book is fallible is a serious problem.
They come up with the belief and preach it without evidence that the KJV Bible is without error, but this adds several problems. If you live exactly to the book and believe every word you have serious moral and legal problems (slaves, murder, eating children, abortion is okay at any time etc etc) You are not to see a doctor, you give away all possessions, you believe the world is coming to an end and soon. These things are totally unsupported within our actual world but the book makes people think this way.
Along with the earth being only 6000 years old, there being a firmament above that the sun and stars are stuck in that moves around to create night and day along with rain etc. The weather being totally dependant on God and Heaven.

Neither do you then, You do not believe everything in the book and to say you do is a LIE.
You do not believe in slavery, slaves are in the NT as well. You do not beat people or kill disobedient children, you are not cutting off limbs that could offend you etc.
Picking things you do believe and do not believe is what everyone is doing and you claim superiority because yours is older or has more or different verses.

Fact is everyone interprets the Bible differently, without all the facts and a clear Segway into the next phrase or chapter things have to be added in order to have something that makes sense, if you do not have this you only have a book without an ending or a beginning and if they were HONEST this is what we would have.
