If we had a PERFECT record of it, then there would be no mistranslations

Oh, you mean like the book that was translated by the use of a stone in a hat by an occultist treasure seeker? THAT kind of perfect record? How many corrections has the BOM gone through anyway?

But mormons believe the Bible is the "word of God as far as it has been translated correctly"...not to mention the DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS and the PEARL OF GREAT PRICE A SELECTION FROM THE REVELATIONS, TRANSLATIONS, AND NARRATIONS OF JOSEPH SMITH which were not even "translated" but "revealed to Joseph Smith" supposedly by God, not to mention the Journal of Discourses of the General Authorities of the LDS Church which is full of fascinating tales by mormon prophets of their translations and revelations.

One has to wonder how much of these "versions of religious scripture" you consider to be "not false" in your comparison of the Bible? OR, one wonders if the level of study done by this poster is in any way as complete as the study done by various Inmans.

I dunno what an Inman is, but I wish I culd use your fancy red writing :)
