*grin* It's OK, I just need to walk away when my blood starts boiling: Fundies Say the Darndest Things! Top 100

Here's my favourite so far, out of a whole passel of winners:

[on the sunject (sic) of a Bible printing company]

Yes, that is a great company. I bought one of their large print version (old eyes... what can I say?).

The only thing I don't like about them is they sell foreign language versions of the KJB. I don't think that's right. We know the only true translation is the 1600's version in English.

It's too risky for anybody to translate that into other languages. Mistakes can creep in... and that can lead to heresy. True Christians should only read English.

oh yes, the KJB only crowd.....
the best line ever from one of them was a argument in a school board against teaching foreign languages. the person waved a Bible and said "if English was good enough for Jesus its good enough for our kids"

These hurt my brain too much.

leyenda is obviously not l33t. true Christians should only read Aramaic.

Guess the fool doesn't know about the mistakes in the KJB like "Peace on earth to men of good will." OYYYY!

That's as good as the annual "Harvest Festival" argument with the fundie down the maze from me. She simply does NOT remember that I have more than one reference.

Yeah, I wanted to believe that one was a parody . . . but I keep reading about too many groups who beieve that.

[mafdet.livejournal.com]

Uhhh...no. True Christians should only read ARAMAIC because that is the language Jesus spoke.

Because English has one word for the three different types of love but it is obviously the best....


I actually am using a New King James version right now but personally I change versions every couple of years as my bibles tend to get beat up.

I can't even begin to comment on these....

Sometimes I think that the only versions that should be available are in the original Hebrew and Ancient Greek. That way, only scholars will be able to read it. Yes... perhaps that would be best.
