A couple of the verses that many people believe have been changed in the KJV Bible supposedly relate to the "rapture theory."

But I'm not certain if these folks are talking about actual chunks of the US suddenly aren't there.
I'm not certain that they know what they are talking about at all.
Sure. Why not. If large chunks of land (or non-existant states) could vanish, anything could happen. Right? Maybe they went to Narnia.
Can you please not be grumpy and at least tell me if you think that IF large chunks of land suddenly vanished...by whatever means...could it conceivably end up rearranging the global geography?
What displacement would that be? Start with nonsense and you only get deeper into it.
I don't think that happened (and fervently hope it didn't), but I am trying to imagine if it were to actually happen, could that conceivably explain the displacement of various other land masses around the globe?

I have a fine imagination.
The difference is, I know the difference.

My question was posed on an imaginary scenario. That was all it was, just a hypothetical query.

Right.
And my imagination said, "sure, why not?" Right?
Now throw in the element of debating over what has "always been" in the Bible and what has been altered, and I just can't see any way that this won't throw the entire institution into complete chaos, if this continues.

No worries. When you reach godlike status you can fix it.

I don't have any reason to doubt those who say they remember more than fifty states simply because I myself do not, but I'd love to know what they were called. Were they territories that became states or was the entire geography different and there were actually states that are no longer here?
Hoss listed the 52 states as he recalls them, including Puerto Rico and D.C.:
1. Alabama, 2. Alaska, 3. Arizona, 4. Arkansas 5. Colorado 6. California, 7. Connecticut, 8. Delaware, 9. Florida, 10. Georgia, 11. Hawaii, 12. Illinois, 13. Indiana, 14. Idaho, 15. Iowa, 16. Kentucky, 17. Kansas, 18. Louisiana, 19. Massachusetts, 20. Maryland, 21. Mississippi, 22. Maine, 23. Missouri, 24. Michigan 25. Minnesota, 26. Montana, 27. New Jersey, 28. New York, 29. North Carolina 30. New Hampshire, 31. Nevada, 32. Nebraska, 33. North Dakota 34. New Mexico, 35. Oklahoma, 36. Ohio, 37. Oregon, 38. Pennsylvania, 39. Puerto Rico. 40. Rhode Island 41. South Carolina, 42. South Dakota, 43. Tennessee, 44. Texas, 45. Utah, 46. Virginia, 47. Vermont, 48. Wisconsin, 49. West Virginia, 50. Washington, 51. Wyoming, 52. Washington DC
51 or 52 United States?

If that actually happened, it might still be ongoing. Things might still be changing...like wakes in the water of a lake after a boat has made a sudden turn or acceleration. Other boats in the area will be displaced ever so slightly, over and over, until the motion of the water plays itself out. Just a thought that occurred to me. What do you think?

Have you seen the newest (as of this moment) ME "discovery" in the King James Bible? Matthew 27:9 now speaks of Jeremy the prophet instead of Jeremiah.
9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value
This is the 1611 KJV we are talking about here, not some hip new translation. I've seen that many in the fundamentalist Christian camp are desperately trying to avoid the reality of their changing Bible and the Mandela Effect, but I don't know how much longer they will be able to keep their heads in the sand on this.

4 simple questions :
1 - name the govenor of peuto rico // DC
2 - name the state capitals
3 name the representitives [
4 name the senators - as in sit in the US senate
DC and peuto rico are NOT states , get over it
LS compressions are not done in the center. They're done about three finger widths from the left nipple, proximal to the midline. That includes the cardiac notch, which is the only "soft spot" in the chest surrounding the heart.
If compressions were done dead center, the pressure would never reach the heart through the breastplate to stimulate an electrical impulse. It is also the number one way people break the xyphoid process during BLS.

I mean if its someone with huge breasts, two fingers from the nipple would still be on the boob wouldnt it?
Dammit, now I got boobs on my mind
There are infinite universes so more than likely our consciousness is only in one. Meanwhile, a version of ourselves is being simulated in all of the other universes. It would be possible but highly unlikely for two people or more to be in the same universe.
