Babs it's wonderful you chose what you chose.
Please note this is all real, I didn't make up the words I call attention to, or anything of the sort.
Please also keep in mind that only priests could look upon the bible or in fact any holy items, they had to be covered from the view of the general public. There is good reason, lets see why:

1 Corinthians 15 (Young's ***Literal*** Translation)
1And I make known to you, brethren, the good news that I proclaimed to you,
which also ye did receive, in which also ye have stood,
2through which also ye are being saved, in what words I proclaimed good news to you, if ye hold fast, except ye did believe in vain,
3for I delivered to you first,
what also I did receive
Not view, not saw, not witness same word used to describe those that only heard it.
, that Christ died for our sins,
according to the Writings
(That's right folks, it says according to the writings originally, not anything else, not even pretending to be anything else.)
4and that he was buried, and that he hath risen on the third day,
******according to the Writings,********
(yes it says according to the writings originally)
5and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve,
6afterwards he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain till now, and certain also did fall asleep;
7afterwards he appeared to James, then to all the apostles.
8
And last of all -- as to the untimely birth -- he appeared also to me,
(yes he flat out admits and says "except for the whole untimely birth thing", that really sucks it was so untimely the dude wasn't around to see it he says) (If the birth was so untimely that it was important enough to write down a disclaimer you know it was really really untimely. So untimely he wasn't around when anyone who supposedly saw it were alive at all so scratch that idea nothing first hand at all left.)
9for I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I did persecute the assembly of God,
10and by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace that [is] towards me came not in vain, but more abundantly than they all did I labour, yet not I, but the grace of
God that [is] with me;
11whether, then, I or they, so we preach, and so ye did believe.
(Yep those are the original words, not very firm on that, whoever said it or saw it or said they saw it we will preach it as the truth so you will believe it.)
12And if Christ is preached, that out of the dead he hath risen, how say certain among you, that there is no rising again of dead persons?
13
and if there be no rising again of dead persons, neither hath Christ risen;
14and if Christ hath not risen, then void [is] our preaching, and void also your faith,
(We knew that.)
15and we also are found false witnesses of God, because we did testify of God that He raised up the Christ, whom He did not raise if then dead persons do not rise;
16for if dead persons do not rise, neither hath Christ risen,
17and if Christ hath not risen, vain is your faith, ye are yet in your sins;
18then, also, those having fallen asleep in Christ did perish;
19
if in this life we have hope in Christ only, of all men we are most to be pitied.
20And now, Christ hath risen out of the dead -- the first-fruits of those sleeping he became,
21
for since through man [is] the death, also through man
(not christ not god yes he said through man)
[is] a rising again of the dead,
(Lets repeat that again, shall we, through man is a rising of the dead)
22for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all shall be made alive,
23and each in his proper order,
(yes he specified the order of birth and death that is a correct prophecy but he also is saying it doesn't happen the other way around)
a first-fruit Christ,
(Yep it gets even better, not just one)
afterwards those who are the Christ's, in his presence,
(No not just a "second coming crist" a bunch of em, holy shit!)
24then -- the end, when he may deliver up the reign to God, even the Father, when he may have made useless all rule, and all authority and power --
25f
or it behoveth him to reign till he may have put all the enemies under his feet --
(God loves whooping ass)
26the last enemy is done away
(I mean killing people, sorry, not just whooping ass.)
-- death;
27
for all things He did put under his feet, and, when one may say that
all things have been subjected, [it is] evident that He is excepted who did
subject the all things to him,
28and when the
all things may be subjected to him, then t
he Son also himself shall be subject to Him, who did subject to him the all things,
(BOW BEFORE ME I AM MASTER OF YOU LIKE SLAVES)
that God may be the all in all.
29Seeing what shall they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? why also are they baptized for the dead?
30why also do we stand in peril every hour?
31Every day do I die, by the glorying of you that I have in Christ Jesus our Lord:
32if after the manner of a man with wild beasts I fought in Ephesus, what the advantage to me if the dead do not rise?
(Tells priests to lie, so you won't be killed by the invaders, people won't die for stories. Your people will at some point have to die for you and you better make them believe it's for a damn good reason)
let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die!
(Tells priests lying works, see!)
33Be not led astray; evil communications corrupt good manners;
34awake up, as is right, and sin not; for certain have an ignorance of God; for shame to you I say [it].
35But some one will say, `How do the dead rise?
36
unwise!
(Tells priests to warn people that it's unwise to question the resurrection story)
thou -- what thou dost sow is not quickened except it may die;
(Or you will be killed)
37and that which thou dost sow, not the body that shall be dost thou sow, but bare grain, it may be of wheat, or of some one of the others,
38and God doth give to it a body according as He willed, and to each of the seeds its proper body.
39All flesh [is] not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds;
40and [there are] heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies; but one [is] the glory of the heavenly, and another that of the earthly;
41one glory of sun, and another glory of moon, and another glory of stars, for star from star doth differ in glory.
42
So also [is] the rising again of the dead: it is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption;
43it is sown in dishonour, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;
(Not just to lie, and how to lie, but when it's most important to really really sell the lie hard as if you didn't get it the first time.)
44it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body; there is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body;
45so also it hath been written, `The first man Adam became a living creature,' the last Adam [is] for a life-giving spirit,
46but that which is spiritual [is] not first, but that which [was] natural, afterwards that which [is] spiritual.
47
The first man [is] out of the earth, earthy;
the second man [is] the Lord out of heaven;
(Holy fuck the first wasnt and they say so!!!!!!!!)
48as [is] the earthy, such [are] also the earthy; and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] also the heavenly;
49and, according as we did bear the image of the earthy, we shall bear also the image of the heavenly.
50And this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood the reign of God is not able to inherit, nor doth the corruption inherit the incorruption;
51lo,
I tell you a secret; we indeed shall not all sleep, and we all shall be changed;
52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, in the last trumpet, for it shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we -- we shall be changed:
(They made it so everyone can be ressurrected, because you'll love that. Yes that's right ressurrected)
53for it behoveth this corruptible to put on incorruption, and this mortal to put on immortality;
54and when this corruptible may have put on incorruption, and this mortal may have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the word that hath been written, `The Death was swallowed up -- to victory;
55where, O Death, thy sting? where, O Hades, thy victory?'
56and the sting of the death [is] the sin, and the power of the sin the law;
57and to God -- thanks, to Him who is giving us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ;
58
so that, my brethren beloved, become ye stedfast, unmovable, abounding in the work of the Lord at all times, knowing that your labour is not vain in the Lord.
(Lets tell the priests who are the only ones allowed to view holy items including the bible uncovered to just keep it to ourselves that it's not true even though I just told you outright that it's not true or people won't put much effort into anything for you. Make them believe it really well though and they'll die for you.)
What's especially damning is what's left out in the version you are about to say you believe, after you say you don't believe this one. Just look for the omissions, I'll leave that work to you but you can guess many of them now I'm sure. I know you're also going to say it doesn't mean what I said here or there, ok, then just step back and take it in as a whole and completely forget about my interpretation and stick to the original words themselves.
