So I sort of swallowed the morales and beliefs of the Bible and absorbed it into how I act as a person on the daily. I find that the Bible is the Bible, there is no Masons Bible or Catholic Bible or man-made subjective extensions.

That’s what I believe. And frankly, it’s done me well. Despite my person spiritual relationship with God being errored.

Different denominations and faiths teach different behaviors and practically indoctrinate those who participate in their church.

Anyhow, in the end I concur with your skepticism and perception on the Bible.
I wish I held all the answers to respond to it.

So I agree with the one bible belief

But only so far

After all, there's the KJV, NIV, NLV and various translations of the bible

GG @PohTayToes, you just advanced to level 4!

So within these versions there are differences

Largely they're just phrasing or sentence structure

Mhm.

They’re rephrased, sometimes reworded. But I can assure you, the meaning and it’s truth remain the same.

There’s 1 truth.

But certain verses take entirely different meaning based on those. And sometimes the words are restructured into a sentence of a very different meaning as well

You can’t pull your own truth, unless you’re into relativism.

Yes mhm I agree.

See, that's where the issue is as well

We learned about this, this last semester in my Bible class.

Each translation suffers from relativism

It entirely depends on the person who interprets it.

As they're ultimately interpretations of a book that has been rewritten hundreds of times

As well has been through monumental linguistic shifts as well

Unfortunately yes.

I have a Bible from the 70s passed down to me.

Not just within it's original form, but throughout it's popular history as well

the words are totally different than they are today

NIV I know is specifically, continuously updated for better and friendlier understanding

But for the other translations

I can’t answer for them, because I don’t truly know.

So the languages used for the original oratory editions of the Bible changed while being passed along as well

Mhm.

Back in ancient times, Monks had written thousands of copies.
I’m sure plenty of mistakes were made.

And considering it was passed as a spoken tradition for hundreds, if not thousands of years, caused certain interpretations to be made as well

Monks are actually my favourite part of it all

How familiar are you with the history of punctuation and grammar?

Not very familiar with it. I briefly touched it in class.

GG @Neokrates, you just advanced to level 8!

Because when the Bible was originally being transcribed by monks, they largely didn't exist

This also includes spaces between words

This causes a much higher rate of error in early transcripts as well

As not only did words have to be carefully made out, but had to be wrestled into its proper placement for the sentence based on guesswork
