“Of course, such an study has proven to very disquieting because Muslims hold a position nearly identical to that embraced by our own Protestant Fundamentalists of the KJV-Only, Independent Baptist kind regarding the Bible: that the Koran is the infallible, inerrant, exclusive Word of God, perfect in every detail, mechanically dictated by God and passively received by the sacred writer.”

Gotta call deep, DEEP Bravo Sierra on the above.

Other than a few ‘pulpit pounders’, every Christian I met was aware that the King James Bible was written by Englishmen, not Jesus, or Moses.

Straw Dogs, anyone?

You have yet to meet Peter Ruckman and his clique. I tangled with them back in the 1990's. An obdurately ignorant bunch.

Are they a minority among KJV-Onliers? Perhaps. But they are not too far below the surface debate.
