apparently the NIV committees' goals outdo the intent of the KJV's--they want ppl to actually understand the WoG rather than pack a hefty volume (to/from) somewhere
 
also, the linguistic heyday of the KJV affected George Washington more than George Bush--obviously his modern audiences who long ago abandoned King J aren't necessarily liberal, they merely speak the current language of the modern world
 
this means that one reason Kevin's SPs must confine themselves to preachg in SLC rather than (e.g.) in Bush's DC is that street level Mormons, unlike the ppl in downtown DC, traffic in 19th c. Shakespearean linguistics and the modified code/s in their 'KJVs'
 
in sum, outside of 'the history of English lit class' and the antiquated pre19th c. world view of ppl like the Mormons, current KJV-only mindsets are evangelically irrelevant
