There's No Original Bible
Muslims have long awaited the true admission from the Biblical scholars of Christianity.
Now it is here and right in front of us. Dr. Bart Ehram has publicly lectured again and again as well as having written many books on the topic of Jesus, the Bible and his field of textural criticism of the book adhered to by Christians everywhere - the Bible.
The best part is, he even presents us with ways to prove the shortcomings and discrepencies associated with the findings of remaining shreds and pieces of ancient manuscripts referred to be the Bible Thumpers themselves as "No more than copies over 145 years AFTER JESUS", (peace be upon him).
Take a look at what Ehram has to say about it all, in his public lecture and on his website and emails too.

In the case of the New Testament we have a highly ironic and problematic situation on our hands. We have thousands and thousands of later copies of the New Testament. But none of our copies are the originals or copies of the originals or copies of the copies of the originals.
The vast majority of our copies are from many hundreds of years after the originals. That in itself is not a problem, apart from a related circumstance. All of these surviving copies are different from other another, giving different wording for this verse and that verse, up and down the line, page after page over the entire New Testament.
We don’t know how many differences there are among our surviving copies – by last count we had some 5560 copies in the original Greek language of the New Testament – but they appear to number in the hundreds of thousands. Most scholars think that there are some 300,000 or 400,000 differences among these copies.
The vast majority of these differences are completely unimportant, immaterial, insignificant, and don’t matter for a thing, other than to show that ancient Christian scribes could spell no better than most people can today. (And they didn’t have spell check! In fact, they didn’t even have dictionaries.)
But some of the differences matter a lot, affecting how a verse, or a passage, or even an entire book is to be interpreted. When you change what the words of a text are, you obviously also change what the words of the text mean! And so it matters which words were originally written.
