The Power of Myth

Amazon.com Review
Among his many gifts, Joseph Campbell’s most impressive was the unique ability to take a contemporary situation, such as the murder and funeral of President John F. Kennedy, and help us understand its impact in the context of ancient mythology. Herein lies the power of The Power of Myth, showing how humans are apt to create and live out the themes of mythology. Based on a six-part PBS television series hosted by Bill Moyers, this classic is especially compellin… More >>

Religion for Atheists: A Non-believer’s Guide to the Uses of Religion

Amazon.com Review
Q&A with Author Alain De Botton Q: Is it possible to be a good person without religion? A: The problem of the man without religion is that he forgets. We all know in theory what we should do to be good. The problem is that in practice, we forget. And we forget because the modern secular world always thinks that it is enough to tell someone something once (be good, remember the poor etc.) But all religion… More >>

Bible Code in the King James version?

I was wondering why when I looked up the Bible Code online there were a bunch of web sites selling matrix programs using the King James version of the Bible. But you cannot use the King James version because it’s not divinely inspired. It’s just a translation of the Hebrew Bible. (if I remember correctly it’s translated from Hebrew to greek and greek to english) If you want to get a correct matrix you would have to use the Hebrew bible.
I have no links but if you watch the show on the Discovery Channel called “The Bible Code” You will notice that almost all of the people researching the Bible code are Jewish and they only use the Torrah, the Old Testament.

Was King James a latent homosexual? Is that why he effed up the Bible and caused countless misery?

India- I got you all excited with my banjo music, didn’t I?
Meatwad- I am actually curious about this and care for an answer.

Did King James remove certain books from the original King James Version of the Bible, 1611?

Got this from a response to a question i asked:
“Believe it or not, the original King James Version of the Bible, 1611, had the same list (canon) of 80 books as the Douai-Rheims version used by the Roman Catholic Church at that time. King James insisted on the removal of certain books because they went against the desires of the Church of England for morality (i.e. divorce and remarriage) and beliefs (i.e. purgatory). ”

What does the word “thy” mean, or represent, in the King James Version of the Bible?

I am just wondering what the word “thy” means. I was think it means “the”, but ‘the” is mentiined in the Bible to.

I am referring to the King James version of the Bible.

So I am just wondering what it means, or who, or what it represents.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Why was the book of Judith taken out of the King James version of the bible?

It’s placed between the book of Tobit and the book of Esther.

I think King James also plucked out Tobit.

My bible has it, yours doesn’t…..shouldn’t you be reading absolutly everything originally included in your bible if you go word for word, take it literally, analyze, and study your bible so much?
Judith is a historical book. It’s a story about how God delivered the Jewish people through the instrumentality of a woman.

Aren’t you missing out?
sparkleso: the canon included all the books I have in my bible….that’s the point.
Why did King James remove this?
LOL Brother Micheal: all the contradictions and outrageous things in the bible and the Protestants nitpick about that!?

What about the meantion of works according to how you are judged in Revelations?
Works are also meantioned in other books as a GOOD thing, I don’t know how in the world you people misinterpreted that one!
