<DIV>Nothing in English sounds like the authentic voice of G-d so much as the
KJV. I was raised on the Revised Standard Version. Only much later, did I notice
that in trying to be more accurate, the RSV took a lot of the poetry and power
out of the text. Once I started getting a little insight into the Greek
and Hebrew texts, from people who know one or both, I realized that what we have
in English can NEVER be the full meaning of what was originally imparted. But
most of us will never learn Greek or Hebrew, nor Aramaic, so its good we have
something in English.</DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000080 face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>I was raised using the
King James Version of the Holy Bible and the funny Children's Laws was written
using that same feel of language. I read it out loud to myself and had
to stop often to catch my breath from laughing. It really was a funny
piece. I wonder if those who aren't familiar with the older English
style of writing thought it as funny as I did.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>P.S. "Children's Laws" was funny... but too long to read all at
once.</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
