I find it interesting his desire to read the exact translations caused him to be ostracized by some of the evangelicals.

Why does it seem that they do not want study, just lemmings?

Because they know that the exact translations will differ than their interpretations since there is only one bible and a crapload interpretations.

There you go :wink: . Also alot of the interpretations are made so they fit into that particular religion's teaching.
