I personally think some of the comments on this site can get pretty ridiculous at times, more importantly, they can utterly obliterate an otherwise important message. However, you know what is said about opinions and how they are like a particular body part (everybody’s got one, and they all stink). The thing I have seen that truly ruins credibility is when atheists/agnostics/whatever pontificate about the Bible, yet they don’t believe in it in the first place.

Bullshit. You're just claiming to be a "scholar" of the Greek and Hebrew b/c you think it makes it less likely you'll be busted not knowing basics.
You'd have an opinion of which version if you studied the Greek and Hebrew.
You'd also know that the Bible shows that Jesus Himself prophesied in Matt. 24 that the generation alive when Israel becomes a nation again, and a bunch of other Revelation prophecies all occur will see the end of the world.
You can only argue replacement theology (God's promises to the Jews are now only applicable to Christians) but that's really hard to do when Israel recently (1948) fulfilled a major requirement of becoming a nation again. (people don't appreciate what a HUGE miracle it is for a nation to re-assemble after 2,000 years).
The Bible also predicts Jews will continue to reject Jesus until the VERY end. Events are actually building towards another proof of the truth of the Bible there. A Jewish state that recognizes Jesus as King for the last 75 years? Is that what you want? THAT would prove the folks in Israel aren't the predicted Jews.
If you knew your Bible better, you'd know all of that....
You did a really great job of impolitely repeating the nonsense the anti-Christ's have infiltrated into the churches. The word Jew as it is understood today is not in the Greek and Hebrew word meaning. The Latin word Gentile was inserted to hide the meaning of goy and ethnos which is simply just Nation. The context determines the who. Several times it is the Ten Northern Tribes after the divorce. Spend some time digging in. I won't mind helping if you are interested.
That's not what got means.
At all.
