All I've seen of JunkYard's posts have been positive, promoting respect and love for others. Just because his opinions don't conform to yours doesn't mean he's a liar or that his opinions are worthless. Show a little courtesy.
I have to agree with you on this one, name calling is kinda playground.

I for one believe that the Bible which was written by the prophets (men) and translated into English by men is not always right.
The phrase "Lost in translation" comes to mind , as I speak a couple of languages I do understand the difficulty in translating certain sayings and phrases from English to Dutch or visa versa and they are both Germanic languages .
Imagine what could have been misinterpreted when translating DEAD languages and you have a minefield full of uncertainties and it is very possible that whole passages could be filled with errors.
