    Why? All translations are made by men who all claim that they aren't perfect and neither is their translation.

    I have a counter argument though.


    The inspiration and the preservation of Scripture only pertains to the lolcat version. The lolcat version says so in Mt.24:43-35 "nao lern dis leson frum teh fig tree: as soon as itz twigs git tendr an itz leavez come out, u knoe dat summr iz near.33 even so, when u c all thees things, u knoe dat it [d] iz near, rite at teh door.34 truly i tell u, dis generashun will certainly not pas away til all thees things has happend.35 heaven an earth will pas away, but mah werdz will nevr pas away."

    That proves it beyond the shadow of a doubt. If you can't read this, tough. You don't have the Word of God in your language. And you should learn to read kitty, and specifically the one in the lolcat Bible, if you really want to know what God says.

    You see, God loves kittys over all people groups on the whole Earth. And He invented the kitty language especially for the Word of God to be translated into it in a perfect way. This cat version is better than any Existing version. Call me LolCat-O: Lolcat Only.

    Yeah, you're right, why should there be a perfect Bible? It's not like the Lord promised us he would preserve his words for us? What was I thinking, how silly.

    Oh, I can read that easily. And it is nothing more than a dialect of English. Besides, God doesn't love cats. Nobody loves cats.

    Haha yeah silly God. Didn't preserve his words until 1769. Maybe he was taking a nap or something

    See that's where you are wrong. You see Jesus calls himself the lion out of the tribe of Judah. And you know a lion is a cat.
    Kitty version strikes again.

    That's silly indeed. Of course he preserved his words before 1769.

    Hmmm well at point the lion was a kitty. So at what point does God stop hating the kitty lion and loving the adult lion. You see your doctrine had to many holes in it to be reasonable. You need to stop attacking the kitty version.

    So I'm assuming then you can show me and Greek and hebrew manuscripts that match the kjv perfectly and was accessible to everyone to have all the words of that you have in your kjv.

    Greek was the best choice for the New Testament, as Hebrew has no grammatical neuter gender, which would make John 10:30 a problem to translate correctly. Neither would Latin do, as it has no "definite article", which would be a problem in places like John 1:1. Greek has both.

    Well, you'd probably fall for the Cotton Patch Version, too, then.

    So do those verses about preservation refer to those manuscripts. Or what do those verses mean in tyndale's version. Surely you could show me someone stating before 1611 that these verses mean we would have a perfect God authorized translation.

    And then you Americans wonder why your country is going down the drain...
    Tell you what. Tell me which Bible you believe is perfect first, then I'll tell you which one I believe and why.
