Sure, all the Bibles I read include those footnotes as well. But do any of them say that the words are not inspired? Are the translators attempting to trick us, to see how Christian we really are, by throwing false teachings into the Bible and seeing whether we correctly reject them? You lose all credibility with posts like this one.

(and what the heck is with the multiple references to snake-handling? My father-in-law encountered snake-handling preachers in the back woods of Tennessee, and they most certainly weren’t Catholic, my FRiend)

You have selectively read the spurious passage you claim proves salvation by baptism. Snake handling is in there, along with drinking poison. I encourage you to read the entire passage and if you cling to part of it, then cling to all of it.

And, your last post said the conversation was over. More interest?
