You've complained that Ezekial is translated incorrectly. Well, provide the correct translation and we'll compare notes I did. I quoted Eze 28 from the Septuagint.

A summary of the Orthodox position on the Holy Scriptures:
1. Protestants don't know what the scriptures really state since they are filled with bias and error. (No mention if the Catholic's Doury-Rhiems version is accurately translated.)
2. Every version that Protestants use is wrong but the Orthodox won't tell what the correct text is, although the KJV is pretty close.
3. One can only understand the scriptures through the Greek, and only the Greek text except Orthodox who can't read Greek.
4. The Orthodox has the true version but after 2100 years hasn't got around to translating it yet. (Please ignore fact #1)
5. The Orthodox knows what is the true word based upon Tradition. (Please ignore fact #1 and #2.)
6. The Orthodox sing and read the scriptures during Mass. (Please ignore fact #1, #2, #3 and #4.)
7. Only the Orthodox understands Greek.
And I'm suppose to be impressed by this argument?
