***The people that read and believe my bible, the Authorized Version, know that it originated in Antioch, where followers were first called Christians...The area of the world where the Apostles hung out...***

We really do live in different worlds.

The King James was primarily a re-translation of the Bishop’s Bible, with some scrutiny paid to Geneva, Matthews, Coverdale and Tyndale. Some Hebrew and Greek manuscripts were also brought in.

Your man-made translations are just that. Nobody on the King James team claimed any inspiration of the Holy Spirit, by the way.

Yep, about 5000 of them compared to the 45 that are used for your bibles...
