WHAT?????????????????????????? It is general knowledge amongst historians that by the middle ages, there were HUNDREDS of NT variants floating around. Martin Luther himself changed a few key things that made it then into the KJ bible (either he was not fluent in old greek - likely - or made intentional changes). Comparing the many variants actually helps researchers figuring out which varieties are more likely "correct" (whatever correct means) than others...
