They seem to ignore the FACT that the Textus Receptus was translated by Erasmus . . . The simple FACT is that the Textus Receptus, Douay-Rheims AND the KJV are all little more than translations of the Vulgate

Sorry, what? The Textus Receptus is a critical text of the Greek New Testament, based on the readings of a handful of late Byzantine manuscripts and published in 1633. Erasmus didn't translate the TR from the Vulgate, apart from one or two brief passages where his half-dozen Greek manuscripts contained incomplete copies of Revelation. Jerome translated the Vulgate from Greek. You've got the cart before the horse.

The Textus Receptus is a critical text of the Greek New Testament, based on the readings of a handful of late Byzantine manuscripts and published in 1633.

Which bears a remarkable resemblance to the Vulgate.

Jerome translated the Vulgate from Greek.

Correct.

Jerome translated the Vulgate from Greek. You've got the cart before the horse.

Consider this, WHY do you think the Douay-Rheims and King James Version are so incredibly similar throughout if one is a translation from the Vulgate and the other from the Textus Receptus?
