Wasn't there something called the "sinful" bible--an edition of King James that left the word NOT out of the 8th commandment? Can't find it on google.

Umm, why Norway? Aren't they god-fearing people? Or is it that we just have more nutters here because of the "freedom of religion" thing? And yes, the second amendment and the NRA. I think I just talked myself into moving. I'm sure they speak pretty good English there.

Back in the early 90's there was a very funny movie called <i><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107492/" target="_blank">The Making of... And God Spoke</a></i>, about a couple of B-movie producers who try and turn the Bible into a movie. They figure since it's the biggest selling book of all time there's a built in audience.

Of course, they don't know the book very well themselves so they hire a writer, "A kid from UCLA, genius, but his script is twelve hundred pages." So, they decide to leave out a lot of, "the depressing stuff," and make their movie.<br />

Really worth seeing. At the time people called it the <i>Spinal Tap</i> of movie making because it's a mockumentary ("The making of..." is a bit of a tip off) and there are a lot of jokes about making movies (sadly accurate), especially low budget movies. The woman cast as Eve doesn't havea problem with the nudity but she does have a huge tattoo of a snake. They aren't sure how many disciples there were so they ask one of the teamsters who's wearing a, "save Catholic schools" tee shirt and he says, "I don't know. 10?"<br />

One might also look at Deut. 4:2; Deut. 12:32; Prov. 30:5, 6; Gal. 1:8. The thought of not messing with the meaning by adding or taking away is not original to the book of Revelation.<br />
