I meant no trick. I agree in "lower" Textual Criticism.

In fact, I wrote, but did not post, a post concerning this
in the thread with the blue one.

By textual analysis we can have great confidence that
what we have now is very close to the original. This
is based upon a statistical mathematical discipline.

But even with that said, some of those in the field
need to be watched carefully, as some of their work is suspect,
at least to me.

God is able to preserve His word, and has done so.

Where people have plainly mutilated God's word, such
as has been done in the New World Translation, even
a child can see the deceit, lies, and errors.

No, you did no such thing. You are hiding behind pseudo-pious ramblings -- as
you so often do.

No, neither of us do this. By making this wildly-inaccurate claim, all you
accomplish is to show that you have never understood either Bart or myself. I
wish I could say that this is a surprise.
