    Well, the way the world is going, you just may be right. But if they put the KJV in there, it'll probably be alongside the rest of them, listed as "What some crazy fanatics used to believe". Sad.

    So Wycliffe was not put to death as a Bible translator.

    He wasn't a Bible translator.

    No Bible translators in that group.

    Yes, I did overlook Mister Rogers. But he wasn't put to death for his Bible translation (largely Tyndale's). He was put to death 18 years later for other charges.

    Again, he was not a Bible translator. But he was in favor of getting the Great Bible published.

    Nice historical facts; however none of the above were put to death for being Bible translators.

    No, you haven't established that at all.

    Not all had to be translators. many more were put to death than these for trying to give the common man the word of God. Anyone who translated the Latin bible for the common man was put to death, and anyone printing anything other than the KJV (Anglican version) after 1611 was in danger of death.

    Today the penalty has been reduced to being labeled an "Alexandrian".
