I agree 'modern interpretation' is a problem, but why do you say the
Bibles were written less than 100 years ago, and how to satisfy man?

Serious questions there! I used to be a "King James" guy, because
that's the way I was raised. I don't knock ANYONE that wants to 
read the King James translation only, but at the same time it is
still a translation.

When I read, I like the NIrV, and would be happy to elaborate on
WHY. But when I'm studying and want to get to the meat of it all,
I will use KJV+ in my software. That is the King James with the
original Hebrew or Greek words with Strong's Concordance references.

So, in essense, I'm reading the best I can in the original languages
with English translation information.

I am NOT about to run down the Catholic church, even though I hear
other Protestants doing so. But I have heard from ex-Catholics that
the 'homilies' they hear (what we would call sermons) didn't really
include the Gospel. Is that true?
