[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] ">And how would you suggest someone go about this? I think you're just getting desperate for an explaination." Actually, that one's fairly easy. Most 'records' of ancient times, until the printing press was invented, were copied from generation to generation by people who were generally under the command of the Church. (Monks, mostly, are responsible for all those old 'illuminated manuscripts') So maybe somebody reads something that he's copying and notices a discrepancy. So he points it out to the Friar In Chief, and the guy says "change it so it matches, and burn the old copy. we can't have anything undermining Our authority." So they do. Voila, altered text. Happened all the time. Really, the Soviets under Stalin did the same thing with their history books. [/QB][/QUOTE]
