It does, and I appreciate the clarification. Do you know why your Christian friends have spent more time reading translations? Is it related to dmreedy (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12847680 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12847680 )'s hypothesis about reading the Bible in translation?
- russnewcomer 10y agoExactly. I do not personally know of anyone that fluently speaks the original languages (I know people that have taken classes in the languages, but even they rarely read the originals, sticking to translations).
