Sitting with a bunch of liberals. They are talking about their friends health issue. "How many people in your circle can get sick at once?!"
The one thing in common, they all got the clot shot.
Sorry folks. We tried to warn you.

It is painfully obvious that you have absolutely no experience with the nature of bibliographic evidence for the transmission of ancient texts.
The NT possesses over 25,000 manuscripts. The more you have, the more reliable the translations and transmission. To give you an idea by comparison, Plato has 7 manuscripts. Aristotle? 5. Caesars Gallic wars? 10. The Annals of Tacitus? 20. None come close.
Do you doubt the authenticity of these historical writings too? Of course you don’t.
The time gap between when the original autograph was written and our first copy for the NT manuscripts are some of the shortest gaps in early antiquity. NT time gaps range from 7- 60yrs for entire books. The average time gap for the writings mentioned above? 1000 years. Do you even understand what that means?
If one throws out the NT documents as being unreliable, then one must throw out ALL of 1st century history. You can’t pick and choose.
Oh, by the way, the whole KJV thing is simply a red herring in this discussion. So just give that a rest. You brought up the KJV, I didn’t.
It's funny how you are on the GA but won't acknowledge that anything underhand could have ever happened with meanings and translations of these texts.
It is funny that you think what is written above constitutes a chain of custody.
Straight from God's lips to your stenopad. Right.
You could maybe start your own religion where you know everything that has ever happened or ever will happen.
...and yes the entire 1st century will probably have to be rediscovered and the contemporary version of it thrown out before we are done.
Catch up Brah.
Yup. You have no background in this topic whatsoever. Pearls before swine.
Meatloaf though a straw !
