Oh, dear. That darned unicorn in the Bible page is getting me preached at again. LOL!
Do note that the page has this disclaimer at the top:
Due to the nature of some of the email I receive regarding this particular page, I thought I'd update the page a little to include the following information. I am not an expert on Biblical history or ancient languages, nor do I claim to be. I don't read Latin, nor do I read Hebrew (although my husband reads some Koine Greek).
What I am is someone who has been looking into a particular anomaly of translation found in one English translation of the Bible, the Authorised Version (known commonly as the King James Version), because it intrigues me.
I cannot and do not necessarily think that all of the tidbits of information I've been able to gather are necessarily authoritative. In fact, I'm just collecting tidbits of information, and readers should take it as such. This is not a scholarly treatise. It's an offbeat hobby that I've been pursuing off and on for many years and which I felt like sharing because at least a few other people might find it interesting.
Naturally, the writer of the preachy, poorly written email either didn't read or didn't understand that....
I'm not going to post the whole email because it's mostly a lot of blah blah blah from someone who obviously has NO CLUE what I'm writing about, but it starts out thusly:
its funny to me the nievety of some people who are so quick to beleive in animals that have no real significance in any matter of life
Never said that I actually believe in unicorns, but nevermind. Some people never let what someone has ACTUALLY written get in the way of what they want to berate you for.
And by the way, my dear "anonymous" AOL user.... If you want people to take what you write seriously, you might try this little thing called "spelling" and "paragraph breaks". I also wonder why you send emails with no return address. What's wrong, afraid I might argue with you? Or did you just think it was more fun to do a "drive by"?
