Yea. You are a Bible believer.

I am. I also study the Bible daily. I use the KJV, the NKJV, the NIV, and the NASB during my study. I also have a great love of church history, theology and philosophy. I also happen to love the truth and cannot stand hypocrisy within the fellowship of believers.

I have no quarrel with using the KJV, I just have a real problem with you accusing God of witholding the best form of his word for 1500 years from his people. The KJV is a good translation. It was worked on by many faithful scholars. It was also authorized by a man who had sex with other men and persecuted the Pilgrim movement within England.

There are many other good translations as well. St. Jerome made a wonderful translation. It also was criticized in it's day by those who thought it too "modern". It was termed "vulgar", because it was too "common".

It's a shame that so much energy is being put into attacking other translations rather than preaching the Gospel, but we all have our priorities I guess.
