I can't reply to the Navy Seals/Under World post, so I made another
one. The whole ranting and raving seems to have gone on for at least
100 years. It's the "SHEOL" or (She'ol) word that refers to "under
world". And the 1901 American Standard Version of the Bible is what
you're looking for. THAT version has "Sheol" in it 63 times. But
NONE in the King James Version. Oh nooo... They didn't want you to
see Sheol 63 times, so they re-wrote God's word.
Basically, anyone who feels like revising an old Bible is... uh...
going to be called names. It's a no-no to change the Sheol word and
change it to 2 or 3 other words, or leave Sheol out entirely. Please
check out the next two sites. They explain this SHEOL madness.

If all this bible-rewriting business makes you mad, you'll have to
stand in line. Perhaps the smarter idea for all of us is to use the
1901 American Standard Version, complete with the SHEOL words. I'd
rather look at a 100-year-old Bible written "weirdly" than to read a
pack of lies or revised truth.
I mean, think, if someone whisked you away to Mars, and everyone was
wise about God and they had the proper Bible, and you didn't
understand it... would you be so insensitive to just dumb-down their
bible? They'd kick you off of Mars real fast. I mean, should we
dumb-down the 4th and 5th dimension ideas too? Should we dumb-down
anti-gravity so bad we change its meaning? No.
In short, it's like changing CREDIT CARD to CREDIT. NO, dim bulb,
CREDIT is a GENERAL TERM! Credit Card is a specific object.
About 90% of everyone you see has probably forgotten the word
ENCOURAGE. They don't know how to do that. 90% of people probably
can't properly define HUMBLENESS. Probably 90% of the people you saw
today won't look up at the clouds, and 90% of the people won't think
for themselves. Most people have lost the energy to learn. No
wonder we have so much trouble getting them to listen to Hollow Earth
ideas.
I remember reading about defining Peace... Peace is a little tree
growing on the edge of a waterfall in the middle of a river.
There will be an end to society's closed-mindedness... just hang in
there. Then perhaps the members of allplanets-hollow will grow from
115 to 9000.
I hope someone listens to me.
