To have anybody making such weighty decisions on an immature judgment about a word or two is not right, and I do not want to put a burden on common people that they must assume a scholarship they do not have, in order to understand the Bible.<ref>"[http://www.kjvonly.org/bob/ross_rice_reply_to_fuller.htm Dr. John R.
