Obviously there are the revisions and many controversies therein.   But I think the most difficult part of the Bible to manipulate or revise would be the messages conveyed by Jesus.  That's what people remember most.  Maybe Jesus' own messages could be manipulated or revised a little, using purposely bad translation or other methods.  But, I don't think they could ever have been turned on their head, Christians would have known.

So what I'm saying is, I could see a person reading the Bible and coming away with a more true meaning of it by focusing exclusively on the message and words of Jesus.  Dismissing a lot of the rest just to make sure to stay on the straight and narrow.
try rewriting your post in a coherent way, it's incomprehensible
