I was into a rabbit hole questioning me about God’s existence, debating myself and looking for different opinions of different people, when, sadly, I found that the bible is copyrighted.

You can find the licenses nearly at the bottom. https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/es/Hebreos 11%3A6

It’s was sad, because it make me stop questioning me about the existence of god, everything started because I said to me “if god exists, then faith is useless, we need the inexistence of god to have faith”, but that, makes me feel less faith

    KJV, which is obviously the best version

    Is this a joke or are you serious? What’s “best” in a person’s view depends on their values, (like the “best” food depends on what flavours a person likes, and their nutritional needs)

    What values would a person need to have to consider the KJV the best? I don’t think it’s the easiest to read, nor the easiest to understand, nor the most accurate. I don’t think it’s the oldest English translation either and it’s also biased. Is it the most poetic, maybe?

      Both. I realize it’s not for everyone, but I like it the best. When I got into it, what I was looking for in a religious text was not that it be “the easiest” but I didn’t want to learn Latin or Hebrew either.
