To not know history and not "care" is to be easily misled through 'Pharmakeia'.
History is a reliance on man being truthful. The Bible is a reliance on God being truthful. In fact, when I see people that lean on the sexual mores of some king in their choice of Bible, it throws red flags up. I seek truth in the Holy Spirit, man can say what ever they want, it gets a fraction of the consideration given to God.
Here is how; compare key verses in the KJV against either the nasb, niv or esv. Focus only on those concerning the divinity of the Lord Jesus Christ. Or the Trinity. See which ones affirm and which ones deny.
For example
KJV Ephesians 3:9
And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery,
which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
NIV Ephesians 3:9
and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God,
who created all things.
Which do you believe is True?
The Authorized Version is not disqualified because of the fact King James was a sodomite. It really should not bear his name though. It's a complete misnomer to call the 'Authorized Version', the King James Bible because King James never accepted it. Because this well known fact seems to upset you, it doesn't mean the preponderance of evidence that "Queen" James was a sodomite is whisked away. The homosexuality of King James is well known and taught in theological academics. Again in theological study, it is well documented the 'Authorized Version' was never accepted by King James himself, but it was only called 'authorized' because it was authorized to be printed. Hence, the more truthful name should be 'Authorized Version'.
