"Some argue that the AV of the Bible could not be inspired b/c if it were, then the KJ translators would have been just as 'inspired' as the 'original writers.' The Bible, however, does not say that Peter, Paul, Moses, or any other Biblical writer was inspired..Only the Bible itself is inspired." -Dr. Peter Ruckman

Plainly the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of the word liberty; and precisely the same difference prevails today among human creatures." - Abraham Lincoln
