Wow This is a huge topic, So before I say anything I agree the KJV does have errors, To say that the word of God is preserved in the KJV would mean that it is preserved in the NIV. The NIV is missing 64,000 words and 17 complete verses. I even question if the books of Ester and Ecclesiastes should have been included in the first place Feeling that Enoch and Jasher should have been instead.
During the Dark Ages the Catholic Church forbid commoners from owning or reading the Bible. At that time it was only available in Latin and Latin was only taught to Priests, Bibles were actually chained to the pulpit to prevent theft.
Along comes Marty, Martin Luther a Devout Man of God and a Monk changed all that by translating the Bible into German. Marty realized that the common man needed to read the word so the reformation began. Of course the Roman Church did all it could to kill this movement cause they were well aware that once common folk found out that their rights came from God and not the church or the Crown that there would be a revolt. So Tyndale and Wytcliff bumped into Marty and started translating the German manuscript into English. The movement really took off and Christians were persecuted all over Europe. Many escaped by fleeing to Geneva, There they wrote the Geneva Bible and Calvin wrote the foot notes. Calvin spoke out against the Crown and the Pope in his notes. These folks from Geneva Learned that they were descendants of Abraham, Anglo's and Saxons (Saxon Isaak's Son) and they became known as Puritans and the Geneva Bible was a Best Seller. Mean while back in England King James was having fits over the Geneva Bible, Commoners realized that the King was not God Like. and Jimmie had to act fast so he commishioned his buddies to write a new King Friendly version so they ended up using 30% of the Geneva Bible and so much from the Tyndale Bible and a little here and there from some other manuscripts. The Puritans mean while were planning on moving to America The New JerUSAlem They brought with them the Geneva Bible wanting nothing to do with King James and his Bible and for decades the Geneva was the only Bible available here. Please keep in mind that this is my Readers Digest Version and may contain errors too But the gist of it is right on...

Crazy Sharp!
Here is my DIY Stropping Block or Leather Hone. I went to The Camp In up in the U.P. of Michigan in September 2010 and One of the sponsors Mike Stewart owner of Bark River Knife and Tool gave a class on Knife Sharpening. Mike used only Leather Strops to sharpen a variety of knives and taught us his techniques. When I got home I made the Stropping Block and ordered Black and Green Stropping Compound from JRE Now for the first time I am able to get my knives sharp enough to shave with very little effort. Many Thanks to the Sponsors Bark River Knives, Wilderness Learning Center, Sharpshooter Sheaths and Knife Forums. I am looking forward to next years Camp In.

Iran vs Israel: What The Media Wants You To Forget
The corporate media have been given their orders to throw the focus back on to Iran.
Here is a recap of what they are trying to make you forget.
1. Last Spring, Rose Gottemoeller, an assistant secretary of state and Washington's chief nuclear arms negotiator, asked Israel to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Israel refused.
2. The United Nations passed a resolution calling on Israel to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and to submit to inspections. Israel refused.
3. The IAEA asked Israel to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and to submit to inspections. Israel refused.
4. Iran's formal notification to the IAEA of the planned construction of the backup fuel-rod facility underscores that Iran is playing by the rules of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty which Iran has signed.
5. Iran allows IAEA inspections of all its facilities.
6. Contrary to face-saving claims, it appears that the US and Israel were both caught off guard by Iran's announcement. The reasoning is simple. Had the US or Israel announced the existence of he new facility before Iran's notified the IAEA, it would have put Iran on the defensive. As it is now, the US and Israel seem to be playing catch up, casting doubt on the veracity of Israel's claims to "know" that Iran is a nuclear threat.
7. The IAEA and all 16 United States Intelligence Agencies are unanimous in agreement that Iran is not building and does not possess nuclear weapons.
8. In 1986, Mordachai Vanunu blew the whistle and provided photographs showing Israel's clandestine nuclear weapons factory underneath the reactor at Dimona.
9. Israel made the same accusations against Iraq that it is making against Iran, leading up to Israel's bombing of the power station at Osirik. Following the invasion of 2003, international experts examined the ruins of the power station at Osirik and found no evidence of a clandestine weapons factory in the rubble.
10. The United Nations has just released the Goldstone Report, a scathing report which accuses Israel of 37 specific war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza earlier this year. Israel has denounced the report as "Anti-Semitic (even though Judge Goldstone is himself Jewish), and the United States will block the report from being referred to the War Crimes Tribunal at the Hague, thereby making the US Government an accessory after-the-fact.
11. Recently revealed documents prove not only that Israel has nuclear weapos, but actually tried to sell some to Apartheid South Africa. Who else Israel approached to sell nuclear weapons remains an unasked question.
12. In 1965, Israel stole over 200-600 pounds of weapons-grade uranium from the United States.
13. Declassified documents from the former South African regime prove not only that Israel has had nuclear weapons for decades, but has tried to sell them to other countries!
We all need to be Joe Wilson right now. We need to stand up and scream, "LIAR!" at every politician and every talking media moron that is pushing this war in Iran. And we need to keep dong it until they get the message that we will not be deceived any more.
Israel wants to send your kids off to die in Iran, and YOU are the only one that can stop them.

By the time we got up North on Friday (noon) all of are regular camp sites were taken, But we knew of an undeveloped site off the trail a ways and decided to camp there. We did some exploring and found a shady spot a little further in and up hill from a nice creek, Heavily wooded and we could hear the rushing water from the creek but couldn't see it, Sharon wanted to find it so I grabbed the machete and we made our way down the hillside. Huge boulders and downed trees made some rapids and pools of water, The temperature was quite a bit cooler down there and it was a welcome relief from the heat up on top of the hill. We decided that we would start clearing the area and use it for future camping. The ticks were still very bad but I had been psyching myself up for them for the last 2 weeks hopeing they would be gone for the season or be prepared to deal with them just so I could camp. I stopped counting them (ticks) after about 10 and was making the best of it :-) We had a nice fire going and darkness had fallen I had the lantern going and hung from the ridge line sitting there having a cup of tea when all of a sudden something big swooped down and landed on my neck I brushed it off feeling the leathery wings when I did and heard him as he flew away, A Bat!!! of all things WHEW! I was doing good with the tick thing and then got attacked by a Bat...All in all is was great though cause camping is never boring for me.

My neighbor Eric (Snakebite) asked me to go fishing with him in the morning, I already had my fishing license but hadn't been fishing yet this year. I got up at 0400 and we left sometime after 0600. Sharon went to and we stopped to get some bait, There were sure a lot of boats heading North that morning and when we got to Lake Machickanee there were lots of people and more boats coming then we found out that there was a Bass Tournament going on there. I had never fished there before and don't own a boat so I just fished from shore. I put a minnow on one pole and threw it out then told Sharon I was going to go down a ways by the weeds and work a Night Crawler, I had just cast the crawler and Sharon said I had a bite on the minnow so I told her to take care of it and She reeled in a nice Channel Catfish. I kept getting hits on the crawler and suspected it was Bass and after several more crawlers I finally hooked one a Very Nice 5 pound Large Mouth Bass pictured above. I caught several more Bass and after 2 hours we were ready to head home. Everyone remarked that I probably won the Bass Tournament! HaHa No $20,000.00 Bass Boat just an old $20.00 fishing pole and a Night Crawler.
