Do you believe the Bible is perfect and if so, which version and why?

The original was perfect. Translations by nature cannot be perfect.

Translations do a darn good job though!

I believe the bible is perfect and I personally read with more than one version, it helps paint a more complete picture.

I don't have a favorite but I have a few that I like.

I don't think one is better than the other.

The 1991 copyrighted Children's Animated Bible (NYC printing) is the one true correct version. The 1993 revision, unfortunately, not nearly as perfect, and the version printed in Toronto is completely ungodly.

The bible is just a book of myth. Just like the Iliad and the Odersy. Actual, it is closer to the tales of King Arthur in that some of the events and people did exist however they have been change to be used to make out a supernatual origin.

II Tim 3:16

No particular version.

The Third New New International Revised Edition is perfect, but only if you translate it into Swahili, then into Klingon, and then back into English, and remove every third word. It contains all the secrets of the Universe, and a good recipe for cherries jubilee.

The message of the bible is perfect becuause God is perfect. Different

versions of the bible may have minor errors.....but it doesen't change the overall message.

God loves you....God bless

The Bible is true. God show me that it is while I was reading the King James version.

Every version of the Bible has a severe logical fallacy.

God is love, but...

Deuteronomy (randomly chosen)

# "The Lord destroyed them before them" -- the general treatment of the people who were supposedly displaced by the Israelites. 2:21-22

# All nations shall be terrorized by the followers of Yahweh. 2:25

# God hardened the heart of the king of Heshbon and so that he could have him and all of his people killed. 2:30

No "perfect book" would claim to be the word of a loving god who supposedly did and encouraged all those things!

Yes, perfect in making a mockery of human intelligence!

(KJV and NIV, in fact it seems all versions have the same plot!)
