It is sad that so many are lead astray because they believe that the bible that most read today like the King James version and many others are the word of GOD. THEY ARE NOT THE WORD OF GOD and all would know that if they would simply research the history from earliest writing up to the rewrites of today. The quoting of scripture is quoting man and not the word of GOD.
