if you did any study at all, you will see that all scholars (except for the nutcase fringe) accept that the Bible has not been changed since its original manuscripts.

Don't forget the time machines, which only go back about 120 years.
The world is about that old, all history books are fakes, so is everything older than that. There has only been one generation.
Poe's law says someone will believe that I actually mean this, be assured, I don't.
do the words "lost in translation" mean anything to you?
Feel my scales, donkey donkey donkey donkey!
(If anyone gets that reference I'll give you a cookie. XD)
We don't have original manuscripts, so no scholar, nutcase fringe or otherwise, would make that dumb statement.
"the Bible has not been changed since its original manuscripts."
So it was changed before its original manuscript?
Help, I don't understand you version of English and/or logic.
Fuck you deserve to be removed from the gene pool, ASAP.
This one had been pretty much covered, so i'm going to turn my attention to the screename. Why would domebody name themselves after the tiny, unformed person who was thought to live inside sperms in the middle ages? What is he trying to tell us?
There are 50, FIFTY versions in English alone, with over 150,000 variations in wording in those versions. Want try to pull another big lie out your ass there, Homercuntless?
If you did any study at all, you will see that all scholars (except for the nutcase fringe) accept that the Bible has been changed frequently since its original manuscripts.
I fixed it.
WITH capitalization!
Really? Have you seen one in Aramaic? Or Hebrew?
How about that one that King James had edited because the pope wouldn't allow him to divorce his wife?
I do wish fundies would read their own frigging history before saying stupid shit like this.
Not sure if this is a troll, poe or the real thing since if you reverse that statement, you'd have the truth. Most scholars who can actually read the ancient Greek, Latin and Aramaic the manuscripts were writtten in believe and accept that they have been changed through time. I doubt this guy/gal, assuming he/she is for real, has ever heard of the Documentary Hypothesis , which is where most scholars think the Bible actually came from.
lying for Jesus.
Once I thought their ignorance was sad. Now I think it's literally despicable, the depth and vacuity of it.
I think it so sad that people believe in such arrant nonsense: they don't know the root of their religion (or ignore it) but claim its infallibility.
As a philosophy to live by it's not too bad until they fundie-spin it, but as history it sucks
I once heard a quite convincing talk about the change of the manuscripts later known as the new testament. According to this, over time, these documents changed very little. Spelling errors were often only made in one transcript and not in another, suggesting that all transcripts were made of at most three or four 'originals'. Also, over the time (translations aside, translations always go wrong) the text didn't change as much as other texts from this period, as e.g. the Gospel of Judas. There are also hints that the old testament were treated with equal care.
From all this to conclude that the Bible hasn't changed since its original manuscripts is still a bit far-fetched.
TL;DR: Homunculus takes sience, misinterprets it and makes a fool out of himself.
Which version, Homunculus? There are dozens of versions out there. All of which have their own spin on translations. So, please, dear friend. Which one?
Three words..
Council . Of. Nicea
Three more.
KING. James. Version.
Oh, really? Those so-called scholars that you talk about are as imaginary as your sky-daddy.
Grow up and face reality.
"The word that KJV has as virgin = whore (allegedly)"
No, dumbass, Greek parthenos (virgin) was used for Hebrew almah (young woman) in the Septuagint translation of Isaiah 7:14.
"if you did any study at all, you will see that all scholars (except for the nutcase fringe) accept that the Bible has not been changed since its original manuscripts."
Ah, so the lingua franca of the locale & era said Bible was set in, was Ye Olde English , pray tell...?
List! What is yon sound in the distance? Why, it's the sound of all the Professors of Theology in the world laughing their tits off at you!

...and when said Professors of Theology have calmed down and wiped the tears from their eyes, they'll say 'And what the fuck is the 'King James Version ', hmmmmmm? Chopped Fucking Liver?! '
Then let the laughter recommence...
...oh, and what is lulzworthy on it's own? Clicking on said quote link, under 'Homunculus says' there is:
'Customers don't think this post adds to the discussion '
Fucking priceless .
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
