Misquoting Jesus

I heard this on NPR's 'Fresh Air'. Mr Ehrman a leading theologian, although now he confesses to be an agnostic, explores how scribes -- through both omission and intention -- changed the Bible.

The most interesting segment is the revelations between the Book of Mark and the Book of Luke. Apparently in the former, as Jesus was being crucified he asked God, 'Why have you forsaken me?’ In Luke however, this was replaced by 'Father forgive them for they know not what they have done'. The Jesus that come sout from the Book of Mark is disposed to getting angry very quickly and is definitely a rebel, living out in the wild and hanging out with provocateurs (a 19th century word for terrorists). Last but not least the concept of the Holy Trinity (the father, the son and the holy ghost) did not exist in the Greek versions of the Bibles (which are the oldest), but was introduced by the Roman catholic church and was subsequently included in the English translation known as the King James Bible.
