Has any skeptic refused to discuss Scriptures in the King James Bible with you?

Are you trying to divert attention away from the threads that you started that you vacated? How many threads do you intend to start and vacate? Are you trying to control whose arguments get discussed? It appears that you are since you have refused to reply to many posts in a number of threads.

Please be advised that if you refuse to reply to my arguments, I will not reply to your arguments. That is fair, right? Well of course it is fair. No one has the right to dominate discussions and always choose whose arguments get discussed.

That is fine. In the King James Bible, Genesis 1:1 says "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." How can people reasonably verify the claim?
The fact that you have a heart that beats, the sun rises, the ocean waters do not overtake us, and the earth is here is fact that God created it all.

I heard an evangelist say that God controls your every heart beat.

But not necessarily the God of the Bible.

If they do not use the KJV they are filth.
What is your response to those that say that if you do not read the NT and the LXX (as you are obviously a Christian), in their original Greek, then you have no idea what these scriptures really say?

In fact, how do you know that you have not, however unwittingly, simply been led down the path to destruction?

You don't know what reasoning is. You have made it quite clear that in your own opinion, you are incapable of error. There can be no reasoning with anyone of that mindset.

Repugnant... That's all I have to say about this new guy's attitude toward other human beings.

"They are filthy because they don't read my version of the bible." :huh:

Than do not start new threads until you answer old questions.
People have been civil with you so far.However,you will not last if you continue to be arrogant.

As to the OP.
Why is Mark,Luke,Mathew,and John all different on the birth,life,death,and,resurrection of Jesus?

Translation: I refuse to answer your question because I'm too busy repeatedly quoting the bible to people who realize it's false and calling everyone who disagrees with me filthy (and because it's too hard anyway).

King James' English was good enough for Jesus to speak in, so it's good enough for Billy Joey.
