you know, i mentioned ol king james the other day to my daughter. we were talking about the coworker i mentioned above, and the conversation we had had that day. i asked kelly 'what do you think that woman would say/do if she found out that king james, who was behind that version of the bible she refers to, was a homosexual?'
and yes, several books have been left out, including one about judas.
