I'm just flabbergasted is all, that there are so many people who don't care about where their religious text is actually coming from. I mean it's supposed to detail the way you should live your pious life, no? Seems pretty fucking important to me.
I'm Christian but the level of complacency and stupidity I see in most other Christians, coupled with a lack of drive to even do any research on the history of the Bible, beliefs, the other religious texts from the time, etc seriously bothers me.
Most of them seem to go to church just to see friends or to call attention to themselves (especially during praise and worship) and they spend most of the service on Facebook and shit
And the numerous proven translation errors and king James' personal biases found their way into the English translation of the Bible, but again that goes back to above.
