[CS-FSLUG] A Bible-study question

[Yama Ploskonka]

Ouch! if we admit that there might be errors in Scripture, we enter a 
mess of canonicity and such.  Some of us prefer to pretend such errors 
never happened, and/or were prevented from happening by Providence so we 
don't lose sleep over that.  Yes, there's the obvious case of the 
Johannine Comma, but we moved on, so all is fine now .  No need to 
consider lost letters and similar quicksand.
