KJV: Why is it the one and others wrong?
I've seen people mentioned things along the lines of the subject line here, and had it mentioned to me multiple times.
I've always brushed it off and gone about my life. I have 3 Bibles I look at on a consistent basis: KJV, NKJV, and NASB. But I guess I don't get why one is THE one, and the others are a "perversion"...if you will.
I do realize that some translations aren't word for word, but thought translations, but leaving those out...someone tell me why the KJV is the only one? -
What makes a book academic?
It seems that different seminaries disagree on what books are graduate level and what are not. Books like the following I would place at the graduate level.

Charasmatic Chaos
The Serpent of Paradise

Desiring God
A Ready Defense
So what is your view on this? Some books in my library I would not consider academic, but some are used in seminaries regardless of my view. The book "Share Jesus Without Fear" is my best example. -

Mormon or Christian Liberal/Humanist
There is no question that the Christian Liberal/Humanist will have a hotter hell than the Mormon because they are in the church and pretending to be the real deal. This does not make Mormonism safe, but it wont be hotter for them than the liberal. People like Brian McLaren which I believe may be a true and real liberal more powerful and more satanic than someone like Joel Osteen whom is a self-help and prosperity gospel advocate whom no question is a false teacher, but maybe on the same... -
Should Χριστος be translated "Messiah" or transliterated "Christ" in the NT?
Personally, I prefer "Messiah" since that restricts the meaning of the Greek word to its likeliest understanding in the NT. Or to say it another way, it helps Christians reading an English NT to have a clearer meaning of what "Christ" is NOT (i.e. it helps them to realize that it is a title that refers to an important ministry that became foundational for the church's confession).
What are your thoughts on the matter?
So far, the ISV is the only fairly popular translation that follows... -

I don't know where to put this, but there are some really racey adds today on BB. I snagged the banner image and it shows a scantilly clad women with the following text:

Where is it in the Bible
Where is the scripture that says, “All humans are born totally depraved”? Please quote just one scripture. The one scripture has to say it simply and plainly, it cannot merely sound like it. It cannot be an assumption, but a clear and direct statement.
