That is your RC lie.
Factor 1: If you have hundreds, thousands, or just say ten scraps of paper from different times, dug up in different places, handwritten, which letter for letter are corresponding and identical letter for letter, it is incontrovertibly established they were copied from an 'original' writing.
Factor 2: If you believed the Almighty God is the Keeper of his Word spoken for the salvation of his People on earth, God graciously, TO SHOW HIS ALMIGHTY POWER OVER ALL WICKEDNESS, incontrovertibly establishes His Written Word through all times in every place on earth, be it that HIS WORD MIGHT HAVE FALLEN INTO THE HANDS OF THE WICKEDEST POWER THAT EVER DWELT THE EARTH, THE CHURCH EVEN MORE WICKED THAN SATEN AND ALL HIS ANGELS.
By these two factors alone the 'Original' Scriptures are PROVEN FOR A FACT. ... wise guy ...
Then, if out of nowhere and once (perhaps twice) a piece of the same paper is discovered with a clearly more recent addition inserted somewhere between or beside the 'original' exactly identical content, any sane mind will comprehend this, is no original. This, in this diatribe applies to verse 37. ... wise guy ... go where I wish your whole Antichrist church to go!
