cellboyI wish I knew a lot of this stuff. Every Sunday I wake up to "God Talk", with Brent Walters on KGO radio. The host, is very good. Liberal and knows his stuff.
I caught the end of this program, but this morning in lew of it being the anniversary of Kristallnacht, he was talking about how the Bible, and its writing were changed, to its end to be antisemitic.
One example was that the original versions of text/writings of the New Testament, had the resurrection of Jesus happening on Passover, not the pagan holiday of Easter.
I don't know the bible well at all, but he was referring to scripts and writings of the old and new testament, how from original scrips were edited, especially the King James version, in an antisemitic way. This irritates me. But it is interesting.
This stuff, like history, is quite interesting. And it challenges those staunch Bible thumpers. Some call in pretty irritated. Yay :)
