By the time any Monks got involved the Bible had been around for at least seven centuries in roughly its present form. They did not translate, they copied. The fact that Christians with very differnet beliefs have come up with translations that all similiar in all but minor areas assures validity. In fact there is not discrepency between any translation ( other than the New World but that another topic) that in any way affects any doctrine within the Christian church

Inductive arguments may meet a standard of truth and validity to a greater or to a lesser degree, depending upon the amount of support the premises and inferences supply. No inductive argument is either perfect or entirely useless, although one may be relatively better or worse in the sense that it recommends its conclusion with a higher or lower degree of probability. In such cases, relevant additional information often affects the reliability of an inductive argument by providing other evidence that changes estimation of the likelihood of the conclusion.
A plutocrat is a wealthy ruler. A plutocracy is a government or state where in the wealthy rule. Maybe some of these messengers of a good one that establishes a standard of conduct for members of communities of faithful believers to live by were plutocrats or were selected by a plutocracy. Maybe plutocrats were responsible for editing and assembling sacred texts. Maybe some plutocrats were responsible for providing wealth necessary to promote these sacred text amongst communities of faithful believers and the message and standard of conduct proclaimed by ideological authorities to be will of their good one was largely under control of plutocrats. Maybe at present plutocrats can choose to patronize those ideological authorities that spread a message that best satisfies their plutocratic need and aspiration to achieve and maintain authority, power, order and control over state. Maybe in the present, their selections help determine how sacred scrolls will be interpreted by ideological authorities and the communities of faithful believers they lead.

The Bible should not be the whole and entire basis for any one person's faith. I'm a Christian Aliotheist, but what I base my faith on is the original message of Christianity- Love. Everything else is details that are subject to the fallibility of man. If I feel something is wrong, I don't do it, and at the end of the day I feel that me and God are on pretty good terms, regardless of what others who might be shoving the bible under my nose think.

If you do not like that translation buy one Like the New American Standard, that was translated from the original transcripts with the sole purpose of making the Bible easier to read.

Monks were never paid by Kings
There are a great many martyrs for that very reason....to maintain the integrity of the scriptures.

Should be a fairly easy test -- compare Bible translations from various eras and geographic regions and see if there are SIGNFICANT (meaningful) differences between them. My investigation has found that the Bible's message has remained consistently, remarkably the same over time.

According to scholars the KJV is a great translation. The problem is its a dead language.
Other options for a good fair translation are NIV and NASB (used by many Bible colleges and seminaries)

And if you happened to think that the world was round or not in center of the universe you could be murdered.
Isn't it interesting that many religions resort to this kind of tyranny and science never does. It polices it's own by demanding physical evidence or it cast out the frauds.

The King James Version had to be acceptable to the king. So unless the king was god you tell me who inspired it.
