Yeah, yeah. And, “The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation."

Questioning the manuscripts does not necessarily harden the heart against the Lord. And I'm not the type to dig in deeper, in making points, or counter points ; not unless you plan on being combative.
You're a worrywart.
Bro zeek and I were consulting with before Untohim decided to start AltVs. We thought that he just wanted to put us into a dungeon. You are right. Untohim wants to keep the open forum holding to traditional evangelicalism. I suspect that he hasn't gotten fully over the LC yet, but God is not finished with him ... (and you've got light-years to go ... haha).
Well if learning about the variations in the MMS's would disturb your peace before the Lord I don't have the peace either. Like I've stated, it's not a salvation issue. But it might be a stumbling block to you.
Fat chance. But anything is possible with God.
Thanks for your thoughtful reply brother.

You should seriously consider softening your heart towards the Lord. So that even if we disagree on doctrine, we remain in the Lord. Recover the sense of life and peace within you, if you have lost it. It only takes an honest contemplation, confession and simple prayer for restoration. It's most important to get closer to the Lord. Then you can question the manuscripts and see what the Lord tells you, see if the Lord agrees with you or not. We can bring it before the Lord first, and then share it on the forum.
Psalm 23:4
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
