Blaine: The Bible seems to have some problems, at least according to what I
read below. Perhaps those whose religion is founded on the assumption that
the Bible is inerrant should take a second look.

Pehaps you should take a second look. take your own advice.
or have you converted to the Jehovah's Witnesses?
Do you visit Jehovah Witness sites regularly?
Do you follow their other teachings also?

SPURIOUS PASSAGES OF THE NEW TESTAMENT
On Authority of Professor C. Tischendorf's notes on the readings of the
two oldest Greek manuscripts: The Sinaitic and the Vatican #1209
The following words, found in our Common Version (King James Version) are
not found in the Oldest Manuscripts, and are evidently no part of the
Divine Word. Let each Berean go through his Bible, pencil in hand, and
mark out these words: then read the passages affected and note the
improvement. This list comprises all the important interpolations
discovered to date.
The compiler has condensed this list. From the compiler's point of view
there exist very good reasons why everything in this list should be
crossed out of our Bibles. Thus, when the interpolations are eliminated
from Mark 14:30, 68, 72, the account agrees exactly with that given by
the other evangelists. Or, take Luke 23:34: history shows that the Jews
have been obliged as a race to expiate their crime. Or take John 4:9: it
does not agree at all with Luke 9:52, which shows that even the Lord
himself did have such dealings. Omitted from this list are the dozens of
interpolations made by early copyists with the aim of making all the
narratives uniform, and the hundreds of non-essential words, the addition
of which does not affect the purity of the message. (Some of these
passages have already been omitted by more modern translations such as
the New American Standard or the New International Version, since they
were translated from the more reliable, ancient manuscripts.)
