Your age range if you will?

Hello everyone,
I am curious to learn more about the ages of the membership here. Why? Certainly not scientific, but I'm wondering which age group has the most representation here.

One fear that I have is that the King James Bible is losing popularity among the younger adults, not to suggest for a moment this is a popularity contest.

After all, what do all modern versions need to remind us: oh yes, the modern version is so way, shape, or form is an "improvement" upon the King James.

If this is successful a poll will be produced.

Peace,
Harley

The first one to vote. Hi!

I'm in the 2nd category... 20 years old to be specific. Those fun teen years are over...

hehe

27 here. Oh, and I don't think the KJB is loosing support among the youth. I see quite a few young people on FaceBook that love the KJB. I think we'd see more growth if those of us who pass out tracts on the streets would carry tracts in defense of the KJB (or in offense against the alexandrian perversions) to give out to those who indicate they're Christians. Tabernacle Baptist Church has some great tracts (these are the ones that lead me to the KJB) which can be ordered here: http://www.tbaptist.com/pages/tract-cat.html#e Also, it would be nice to see more Bible Believers in general carrying these around and leaving them where folks who use other translations can find them (like slide them into their bibles when they're not looking).

Peace and Love,
Stephen

I'm 22. There are plenty of young KJB people around my area!

And representing the young side of the seasoned veterans, I'm approaching 57.

And I recently visited a Christian community that does not have a King James Bible position. And I was told that the youth have a greater affinity for the King James Bible, often understanding the Westcott-Hort manipulations, the significance of the strange textcrit theories, very well. Also appreciating the grandeur and majesty and purity of the King James Bible language. The youth tend to have less long-term Christian training and may see something like the Bible truth crisper and easier. (58 here.)

Shalom,
Steven

Yep, and that's exactly why we need to keep young people out of Cemetery.

Nothing like a good bible college to kill a persons faith in The Bible.

Peace and Love,

Well at 68, that puts me in the high minority.

Or maybe a time honored elder. Saved in 1952, and Baptized in a Baptist Church. Goodness I never thought, that's 56 years now.
