Bible Translations

[PureEvil760]

I'm sure some did'nt really believe they were just transcribing the words, just like it is now.. biblical religions are just belieliving the words but ignoring the truth behind them.

I think the bigger issue is not the translation of what's in the bible. they're all pretty close. Its the books that didn't make it into the bible. Read some of those and you'll find a lot of real interesting reading. Like the gospels of Judas

The gospel of Judas wasn't written until at least the 2nd or 3rd century after Jesus' death. In other words... FALSE!!!!!!!

i got divorced over smoking weed for medical reasons...had spinal cord injury and when i quit all the hard core prescription meds "the church" a bunch of so called christians said they did not think it was a good idea for me to use marijuana for pain since i had tro grow my own medicine so the battle was on...the pastor was a former drug counselor and he fought me every step of the way with every translation...bible verse he could throw at me...so when i said my prayer after going through hell with them....i just said there is no way i can fight him personally but if he was not good for the community then remove him....he was later caught in an aldutlerous affair with his secretary and his wife at the time wanted him to go to counseling and he refused. TYPICAL HYPOCRIT...see them every sunday lining up and trying to buy there way into heaven....the ones who give the most get the most attention and my ex was no exception...she liked being the "big giver" !

So translations are to every individual and when you put people up to follow they will always let you down....stand up for yourself and think with your own brain...religion has only been used to control people and that is not God's message!

I agree to an extent. There are certain verses and chapters etc. in the Bible that many people question and interpret differently but the whole point is to recieve the main message.
