Thank you for your input, your reply is what this Caucus is about. The inclusion of King James Bible verses in comments about important issues facing the world today.

You mean KJV (King James Version) set against NIV (New International Version) is fundamental underlying reason of what this thread is all about? And here I thought it was supposed to be about hypocrisy.[smile]

That makes little to no sense under caucus designation guidelines under religion forum rules, unless you are really trying to make fools out of King James Only, uh, adherents, perhaps...

You had said in comment #38;

No. We can't. It would be impossible. Already, in comment #57 the NIV was discussed, even criticized. Not that that breaks my puny suffering heart, or something...

Picking on the "nearly inspired version" is nothing new.

If we were to have a number of different 'caucus' designations protecting different English language translations of Holy Writ, then, as Wyrd bið ful aræd made observation in reply #44;

He's already been proven correct -- if not before, then at the least by now.

'King James only' caucus designation is inherently problematic. A person couldn't even bring reasons why they thought KJV was superior to other English language translations -- if that's what they truly believed.
