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.

Well, it depends on who you depend for a translation.
For instance, Jesus is quoted as saying: truly truly I say to you today you will be with me in paradise.
Knowing that the greek text does not contain interpunction, how this text is to be understood differes depending on persuasion and logical reasoning.
With regards to missing interpunction, especially given the fact that vowels are simply missing in Paleo-Hebrew, Genesis 1:1 could also be read as: in your head is the creation of the powers, heavens and earth.
So, doe sthe content magically differ? I would argue: yes, it could.
