Not to mention that the KJV is not even based on the Greek, but on the Vulgate! This makes it a translation of a translation -- and possibly a translation again once removed if the "principal characters" of the New Testament conversed in Aramaic.

KJV is basically a "multi-babelized" version of what was actually thought, believed, and discussed by Christians in First Century Syria and Asia Minor.
