    They already don’t listen to the Pope. Give them a few years and they’ll cut out the new testamate for its liberal bias. Then drop the whole thing because the old testamate was written by middle easterners.

          That one issue alone is enough to bother me. The Bible has been translated, edited, and re-translated so many times that important subtleties have been heavily altered or lost completely.

            That’s what I say all the time, across thousands of years there’s no way some king/ruling class somewhere at some point in time didn’t try to modify the text to benefit them not to mention accidental changes like you said through multiple translations.

            Hell, sometimes even translating things between 2 modern languages causes subtleties to be lost completely

      Bold of you to assume they know anything of its actual contents
