This is interesting

Time Challies recently ran a poll asking what Bible translation people used for private study. The results are interesting. Of 2222 respondents over 64% use the English Standard Version. The King James Version is used by only 3%. Recently we had a seminar at my Church about the KJV and why it superior to the others. The presenter of the seminar had many apparently scholarly reasons why we should prefer the KJV. I believe most of his points were accurate and have decided that is the version I will stay with. Having said that, there are times when I use the ESV for various reasons. Anyway, here is Challies' chart (I hope he doesn't mind my posting it) and the link to his entire post.
