So no Bible either?

Quoting chapter and verse from a book means you know the book..it doesn't mean you've found or understand anything else.

quite wrong, for the personality of any deity as well as the tenets and principles
associated with that deity may be examined in a bound volume. Not only that, it may
be passed on, generation to generation and widely distributed and translated in book
form.

yes by religiously biased trinitarians who wish to impose their exegesis upon the ancient text, where none exists. Thanks for the reminder.

I think he is referring to the incompetent Watchtoeer translators who came up
with the New World Translation.

yeah thats right, the same translation that was compared by professor Jason BeDhun

But Professor BeDuhn is also incompetent as a linguist and translator
of Greek into English, as has been pointed out before.

It has been pointed out by others who have reviewed his book; they
also mentioned his bias in evaluating all the translations.

strange I didn't find them biased at all, then again, I can only read Greek, who cares
what those other trinitarian snakes said, they simply have an agenda and a bias as was
pointed out rather succinctly by professor BeDuhn, they just cant handle the fact that
he did it, their opinions count for nothing, what counts is what is written in the text, not
what they think of professor BeDhun.

You have not even read the book and all you can do is cite the second hand opinions of
others, you should keep quite until you do, for its clear you dont know anything in this
regard.

David Reed, an ex-Witness, says in his book, Jehovah's Witnesses Answered
Verse by Verse that basically the New World Translation came into being for
the sole purpose of supporting Watchtower doctrines showing their own bias
(pp.17-18). Reed says, "So, during the 1950's, Watchtower leaders went
beyond interpretation by producing their own version of the Bible, with
hundreds of verses changed to fit Watchtower doctrine. And, their New World
Translation of the Holy Scriptures continues to be rewritten every few years,
with additional changse made to bring God's Word into closer agreement with
what the organization teaches."
