Confiscating The Bible
Franklin , Tennessee - a concerned Bob Timmerman , wrote The Tennessean about Big Government confiscating everyone's Bible. I four one , don't see it happening and here's why. I'm only 50 years old. That's 1/2 of a century. ( or 50/100 century , for those with an educated degree from Vanderbilt ) Going backwards thru time itself , I can count 14 revised versions of The Bible and that does not include the " Blue Jean " version from LEVI , complete with hip pocket and real brass brads.
Here's my point - we are taught and we are told , The Bible is God's word. Sooooo , why is it , that man revises what The Bible says ? Who are we mortal men thinking we are , by changing what God has said ? The answer is simple " politics ". The Bible gets changed in accordance with the political atmosphere of the moment. In 50 years , changing The Bible 14 times shows a lot of political primate climate change.
Soooo , Mr. Timmerman , I really don't for see anything to worry about , until that is , the political climate gets primate enough to say for you to worry ( and I don't for see that happening in my life time ) , simply because they will merely change The Bible again and again and they'll even do it again , until politics getz it right. You see , using religion is just one avenue for politics to rule the roost while proving their popular acceptance.
Therefore , go forth and find The Bible version revision , you feel politically comfortably stable with and enjoy it in bed. Your rewards will be many times simplified , multiplied and fruitful , while politicians rest easy for another night
