    Well we use the KJV, I don't know if that one was toned down or not. And I only glanced at it so I could be wrong.

    The KJV is an outdated and politically biased translation known for obscuring sexual themes, among other sins.

    It should be rejected on the grounds that we know it's manuscript witnesses were poor if nothing else - as we now have much better ones.

    KJV only-ism is the way to go!

    Nah, I'm kidding. As for the Song of Solomon, I agree it should just be read for what it is. I've heard a lot of people say it is representative of God's relationship with the church or Israel, but there's not really any reason to think that.
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
