Why are Jews always getting so butthurt about Bible translations? You see some of the same sentiments in Christians, but it's usually the Jewish theologians who are of the opinion that you can't really understand the Bible unless you read it in the original, and are often citing zillions of verses that are "mistranslated" over minutae of grammar that nobody who isn't autistic gives a shit about.
I mean, just why? Isn't there more to religion than nit-picking?

All religion is pointless nitpicking.

Because retarded Christians unironically think the OT backs up the claims of Jesus' validity as Messiah, and as God.

I personally share this. I'm thinking of learning hebrew and greek just so I can understand the bible.

Try getting a MDiv or a PhD from any reputable school without Hebrew or Latin

If you take the bible as a holy book and theology seriously that sort of thing is obviously quite important. Even minor changes in the grammar can make a massive change in the meaning.

Jews gotta kvetch about something
It's a law of nature
