Marc Grizzard, of Amazing Grace Baptist Church in Canton, North Carolina, says that the first King James translation of the Bible is the only true declaration of God’s word, and that all others are “satanic”.

Pastor Grizzard and 14 other members of the church plan to burn copies of the other “perversions” of Scripture on Halloween, 31 October.

I was raised in a church that was pretty much just like this.
Makes you wonder what would happen if Christians really got to run the US the way they want to.

I was under the impression that the King James version is considered the least accurate translation.

We Christians are not exempt from this fact.

The kings james version is garbage. It doesn't even have the gospels of mary or judas. Instead it has made up accounts that the followers of matthew and such wrote and put the disciples names on.

I blame the council of nicea and pope innocent for leading millions astray.

Guess how many Christians have issued death threats and are in a rage over it?

If this is the biggest of NC's problems, it's a pretty good day.  Switch churches.  Problem solved.

Judging Christians by what that pastor says is like judging Baptists by what the Westboro Baptist church says.

edited to say: My Bible has a few more books than the KJV.

Not at all. It is very accurate, mostly because it is literally word-for-word.

Where is Canton?

Didn't that pastor just move up here from FLA?
