They must've had some reason to remove all these verses.. A lot of them seem important.. hmm.. maybe it's time I go pick up a King James Version.
edit: I read on the site that these same exact verses are also removed from the Jehova Witness "bible". Also, the JW bible came before the NIV. Strange how they would both be missing the same verses..
