    Because we do not believe what we see... that is our thoughts and oppinions, just the same as you would see the Arabic Muslim faith unfit for what you belive in...



    But if we are talking about a specific topic, you have to have the viewpoint of the topic.

    You can't take what Dstates said and have the viewpoint of a Jew or Muslim, but the viewpoint of what we are talking about.

    The Catholic Church didn't change the Bible.

    It was the other Protestant denominations that changed the Bible to their likeing.

    Oh, and can you prove that mistranslations have occured?

    And no I'm not offened, just don't degrade the Church or the Bible.

    1) Make sure you spelt that correctly.

    2) Don't post things that may not be in the Bible. Give me a verse to look it up.

    3) Not really.

    4) Please realize that we are not talking about the Bible in which the Protestants changed.

    Paul, John and numerous other authors have rewritten, edited and mistranslated the Bible repeatedly. This was the work of the Catholic church. However this is entirely off topic, so back to Jedi .
