Are ALL of the "new" versions of the Bible inspired by Satan?

I stick to my good ol King James Version.  Here's a site that really lays out the differences in bibles......\nhttp://www.av1611.org/biblevs.html

yes, that part is true.  The whole conspiracy thing is nonsense though.  The bible has been edited, translated and twisted many times.  There is still a huge debate between christians.  Some believe you should take the bible litteraly (i call these people retarded), others think it is symbolic.  I think it is all a bunch of crap either way you look at it.

It's entirely possible. The bible (both OT and NT) borrow liberally from other religions and mythology.

If you're referring to the Apocalypse, which some Christians believe is described in the book of Revelation and which some take as prophecy to happen sometime in the future (or any time, really) describes a "war in heaven" (AKA a battle between good and evil) and a "new heaven and a new earth", and a lot of other events, some rahter catostrophic in nature (like earthquakes, floods, the sea turning red with blood, or something like that).  The whole idea is that Satan (AKA the Devil) will challenge God and try to fool people into following him, via an imposter who will possibly claim to be Jesus, or the messiah, returned again, and will lead many Christians and other followers of God astray (AKA the Anti-Christ).  But, God and his angels (the "good guys" in this story)  will ultimately win out against the "old serpent" that is evil, and he will be "cast into a pit" for a really long time, or subdued in some way similar to that.\n\nBut many scholars consider the writings of John the Revelator (who wrote this stuff) to be highly symbolic and not literal.  John apparently had a vision and wrote it down and sent it to various early Christian churches.  It contained messages and warnings for each of the churches about what they needed to improve upon, and the rest of it is a very symbolic thing which many people take as prophecy.  But, some scholars even argue that it was a code, because John had been exiled to an island by the Romans (or whoever was the ruling group at the time) after several unsucessful attempts to kill him.  (If that is the correct backstory, could be wrong).  So all his letters he wrote would have been read and maybe censored before they got to their intended recipients.  All the talk of heaven and earth and dragons and such might have been a code that only the other early Christians understood, which would throw off any censors by leading them to believe they were the delusional writings of a crazy man.\n\nIf you would like to read this scripture for yourself, try finding a Bible (there are many different versions but maybe the King James Version or the New International Version would work) and reading the book of Revelation.  It's at the end, the last book, so it isn't hard to find.\nThere are scholarly writings and numerous interpretations of this text.  If you find the lyrical old-time language of some Bibles hard to read, you could try J. B. Philip's New Testament in Modern English, Revised Edition.  It is a bit easier for the modern reader to understand.\nUltimately, the interpretation of the text, like pretty much all of the Bible, is left to the individual, though some churches may teach one thing or another and claim they are right.\n\nGood luck with whatever further studies you may take.

It is not. Back then, each copy of the Bible had to be handwritten when they were reproduced. This means the scribes had free will to add/change anything they wanted. Also the Bible was translated from Greek and Hebrew to English. So its changed a lot, because there are no originals in existence. KJV went through the hands of countless scribes before being translated.  Even the dead sea scrolls are not the originals, just really old, close to original copies. And no, they're not in English

Satan:\n\n"The idea of this ultimate agent of evil as the Prince of Darkness was most likely introduced by the Iranian (Persian) prophet Zoroaster, whose ideas would later influence Judeo-Christian beliefs[1]."

You are correct, according to the book of mythology, Satan is God's fall guy and just doing what he is told to do, and that is tempt humans to turn away from the one true God. He changed  his name to Jesus and has had outstanding success in the Christian community.\n\n\nThe bible is the greatest work of fiction ever told, full of drama, suspense, intrigue, sex & violence. Why do you think so many have been sold?

There are many ideas as to 666, and they may all be wrong. BUT, when this Man/Creature does arrive, people CAN know IF they read these prophecies, regardless of what they think they mean now. But, I feel most people are Curious of Prophecy. We can see the Prophecies of the Bible that have come true, so, now we try to Decipher those that are still in the making, so to say. I have heard ideas about all the Insects mentioned, from being some new strain of insect (Like Killer Bees) to being Military Helicopters shooting Bullets. It is fun to listen, watch, wait and sometimes see in REAL Life some of these things being reveled. ;-)

The bottom line of Poki's post is "because someone said so". But that isn't true. \n\nThe oldest book on earth, a copy of Isaiah found with the dead sea scrolls, is essentially identical to what we have today. Through the dead sea scrolls we have again proven that the Bible that we have is reliable and accurate and consistent in it's message. There is no scholarly authority or archaeological evidence that proves otherwise. Nada. \n\nSaying the Bible is corrupt is just the same old lie; "Yea, hath God said...?"

I dont believe there are any versions outside of the original texts that are more accurate than the next. There are flaws in the 1611 KJV as well as the NIV and every other version... I dont like the NWT though because it deliberately changes text to fit the Jehovah's Witness doctrines. (if you dont believe the KJV has flaws, contact me and I'll be happy to share them with you)

Satan created mankind. All of the ancient texts point to this. Christianity and judaism have tortured Satan's name for their own benefit. I feel that everything I have in life I owe to Him, and He rewards me every day. Other religions teach people to be stupid. "Dont eat from the tree of knowledge!"  Well I say "why not???"  You should want to know what the Gods know. You should want to ascend to a level of Godhood. Anything less is selling your existance and purpose short. We use 5% of our brains. It is the judeo-christian beliefs that have caused this to mankind. And for what? A book created by Constantine? Satan is not evil. All He ever wants and asks is that mankind use his brains and ability to the maximum extent. All other religions preach to DENY knowledge. Satan saved mankind when other "Gods" wished to destroy mankind. Yes, I love Satan.

Since there is no original copy of the OT present today, no one knows what was changed and altered.\n\n\nIsa 29:15  You are in for trouble, if you try to hide your plans from the LORD! Or if you think what you do in the dark can't be seen. \nIsa 29:16  You have it all backwards. A clay dish doesn't say to the potter, "You didn't make me. You don't even know how." \n\n(JPS)Isa 29:16   O your perversity! ...\n\n(KJV+)  Surely your turning of things upside down...\n\n\n\n2Co 11:13  Anyway, they are no more than false apostles and dishonest workers. They only pretend to be apostles of Christ. \n2Co 11:14  And it is no wonder. Even Satan tries to make himself look like an angel of light. \n2Co 11:15  So why does it seem strange for Satan's servants to pretend to do what is right? Someday they will get exactly what they deserve.

yes I do the same\n\nmy "opinion" is that Satan sends his Demons, aka Aliens, to get descieved that there is other life form out there, thus discrediting the Bible, which Satan loves to try and do

The book of Jude. Verse 6 You can try looking in second Peter 2:4 also. This biblical Hell is Tartaroo. I don't know if Hell was actually created for Satan and his demons, but I know Tartaroo was.

Does that primitive fairy tale sound right to you?  For example why wouldn't Satan use his powers to make Hell really nice so that people wanted to go to Hell?  He could gain power by being nice.  The whole good and evil nonsense in the Bible is really very silly if you actually analyze it.

Satan's way of misleading.\n\nMat 7:15  Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

No to your added question.  It is the only one that has stood the test of time and remains loyal to the meanings of what has always been accepted as God's inspired word.  newer versions often leave out or add to which alters the meaning drastically - my personal opionion has always been that satan's greatest division for christians was to confuse their bible so they couldn't even quote it the same anymore.
