the folk who think the bible is the inerrant, inspired, and infallible word of god should kindly sit back and learn a few things
Judging by your illiterate punctuation skills contained in the OP maybe you should graduate from high school before asserting expertise in Bible.
Do you even know what the canon is ?
You are the typical evo who thinks whatever knowledge they possess in science instantly qualifies them as Bible proficient.

The Apocrypha books were not added to scripture because of several reasons
Only two reasons:
1) the Puritans.
2) British and American Bible Societies.
These entities are responsible for removing canonized scripture arbitrarily.
The KJV contained the Aprocrypha.
Puritans removed it.
Why should the "scholarly" Puritans be allowed to edit the canon ?

Where do you get yours ?
You perfectly typify mainstream/crowd pleasing spineless subjectivity.
When you cannot refute with content - true to this politically correct world - you break out a racist slander which all intelligent people know is the refuge for the defeated and simple-minded.
Until I saw your photograph I thought you were a coffee house yuppie.
Of course the KJV contained the Apocrypha, and elements decided to edit the canon.
Anytime someone wants to muzzle a source I want to know why.
