Of course it isn't. Abraham, Moses, David, and Jeshua did not speak the 
King's English.

You haven't done much translation, I take it. Not much is lost in any 
translation; mostly what is lost is the minor cultural nuance.

> 3) Many of the original scrolls and manuscripts have been left out.

The Bible was made up from various scrolls and manuscripts which existed 
before the Bible was compiled. There was much debate about which writings 
should be included as canon, and which should be omitted. Those that were 
settled on as canon became the Bible. Nothing was "omitted" because, until 
the Bible was compiled, there was no Bible.

Scrolls which contradicted the Bible were not included in the Bible. But 
there are so many documents which contradict the Bible; what would be the 
point of concealing them? One merely needs to show that they can't be 
considered part of the canon; nothing more.

Evil is a religious concept. Humanism is an ideology akin to religion. 
Nothing evil has been done that hasn't arisen from some ideology, or other; 
from animism to Marxism to humanism. Evil is a condition of humanity, 
nothing more.

Biblical morality preaches "humanity"? What ever are you smoking? Biblical 
morality is about godliness, not humanity.

??? You omitted whatever statement you are responding to. No way to assess 
the validity of that statement, or your response to it.
