Mark and avoid him. His name is Steven Anderson and is nuttier than a fruitcake.

Based on you statement - You admit that you agree with Anderson
Remembering the old Baptist radio preacher. Who always preached from the KJV. And you will notice a nice response from the congregation.
And remembering the bbnradio.org, whose speakers I listened to all used the KJV.

Wouldn’t the “golden age” of Christianity have been when Christ and the apostles walked the earth?
“Each time you read an English translation of the Bible, the text is influenced — some more than others — by the translator’s assumptions, opinions and beliefs.” - How to pick a Bible that’s right for you
The word of God had been translated into English many years before 1611.
The Church of England doctrinal views of the makers of the KJV influenced their translation decisions. The KJV translators changed some renderings in the pre-1611 word of God translated into English to make them more favorable to Church of England episcopal church government views.
Acts 14:23
And when they had ordained them elders by election [1560 Geneva Bible] [Textus Receptus with possible influence from Latin NT of Erasmus or Latin NT of Beza or both]
And when they had ordained them elders [1611 KJV] [TR with possible textual influence from Latin Vulgate perhaps by means of 1582 Rheims]

I do not believe it is fair to lump all KJVO preachers in with Steven Anderson. Most mainstream KJVOs dismiss him entirely and are not nearly as nutty. As with everything, there are differing degrees and flavors of KJVO.
That was NOT my intention - ......
Did you find out how the Church of England makers of the KJV re-translated or revised many words in the pre-1611 word of God in English?
It is a verifiable fact that the Church of England makers of the KJV borrowed several or even many renderings from the Roman Catholic 1582 Rheims New Testament, which is on the KJV-only view’s corrupt tree of Bibles. First-hand testimony and evidence from one of the KJV translators would acknowledge or affirm the use of the 1582 Rheims NT in the making of the KJV.
Ward Allen observed: "At Col. 2:18, he [KJV translator John Bois] explains that the [KJV] translators were relying up on the example of the Rheims Bible" (Bois, Translating for King James, pp. 10, 62-63).
KJV defender Laurence Vance admitted that the 1582 “Rheims supplies the first half of the reading” in the KJV at Galatians 3:1 and that the “Rheims supplies the last half of the reading” at Galatians 3:16 (Making of the KJV NT, p. 263). J. R. Dore wrote: "A very considerable number of the Rhemish renderings, which they introduced for the first time, were adopted by the revisers of King James's Bible of 1611" (Old Bibles, p. 303). Jonathan Wheatley referred to “the unique words that originated in the KJB text from the Rheims 1582 New Testament” (Unique Words, p. 329). Jonathan Wheatley commented: “Whilst even the idea that the KJB should feature any trace of such a corrupt Catholic, Latin-based text may be incomprehensible to some Bible believers, it does need recognition here” (Ibid.).
