"You believe that the original manuscripts have been lost"
Do you have them? ROTFL!
The scholars have been looking for them in the meantime they must RECONSTRUCT the supposed TEXT!
"inspired text !! "
Another straw man AND ANOTHER one of your LIES and I am getting pretty sick of your LYING
Please provide one qoute from me saying any such thing, LIAR!
"All of your information comes from web sites written and supervised by KJVonlyists."
Pretty sweeping allegations for a LIAR!
Even if I was a total copy cat (and I am not) so what!
Does that NEGATE the issues raised?
Apparaently you just have FAITH with NO Facts against the issue.
Issues that you are incapable of refuting except by inuendo misrepresentation and LIES?
because you do not believe there are any MSS that are not from Satan's pit.
That has got to be the STUPIDEST statement I have ever heard!
What about the Majority of MSS? DUH Your loosing it.

Of course there are variations. But that is not the issue, is it. You believe that the original manuscripts have been lost, and that God gave the KJV to the modern church as an inspired text !! For you and your buds, it is not a translation. So you reject any and all textual comparisons or studies. All of your information comes from web sites written and supervised by KJVonlyists. Those are the ugly facts, my friend. The King James is an inspired TEXT. That's why you ridicule all who appeal to textual criticism -- because you do not believe there are any MSS that are not from Satan's pit.JD

Subject: [TruthTalk] Oldest & most CORRECTED MSS
"The Codex Sinaiticus has been corrected by so many hands that it affords a mostinteresting and intricate problem to the palaeographer who wishes to disentanglethe various stages by which it has reached its present condition?" Kirsopp Lake,Codex Sinaiticus - New Testament volume; page xvii of the introductionThis from a PROponent?Tischendorf said he "counted 14,800 alterations and corrections in Sinaiticus."Alterations, more alterations, and more alterations were made, and in fact, most ofthem are believed to be made in the 6th and 7th centuries.Tischendorf inspected the document and said "On nearly every page of the manuscriptthere are corrections and revisions, done by 10 different people."Tischendorf "?the New Testament?is extremely unreliable?on many occasions 10, 20,30, 40, words are dropped?letters, words even whole sentences are frequentlywritten twice over, or begun and immediately canceled. That gross blunder, wherebya clause is omitted because it happens to end in the same word as the clausepreceding, occurs no less than 115 times in the New Testament."CORRECTED THRU OUT ALL AGES
Kirsopp Lake says there were three groups and even a four groups of correctorsthat altered the codex. First, there were the "post Caesarean" possibly even those"at the monastery of St. Catherine?s on Mt. Sinai." Second, there were "theintermediate correctors, of which certainly the earliest, and possibly all belongedto Caesarea. They are probably no earlier than the fifth nor later than the seventhcentury." Third, there are the early correctors, all probably "belonging to theforth and certainly no later than the fifth century." Finally, the latestcorrectors altered the manuscript probably in the twelfth century.Maybe this is where the saying came from?Too many cooks spoil the broth
