Be very careful of any versions of the bible, they were all written by man and have note verses left out, words omitted or changed, etc.
How about reading the foreword by the translators of the KJV themselves that says that there are plenty of other good translations and that their translation is not perfect. The fact that we know a lot more now about Biblical history, literature, archaeology, language and religion and have more copies of ancient texts than we did in 1611 seems to scare you.

Where does this 'the KJV is the only reliable Bible version' idea come from?
Because God and Jesus speak English, duh.

The KJV was itself a translation from Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek. As with all translations there will be imperfections from God's holy word, therefore we can conclude that the KJV is a Satanic, anti-Christian Bible that arose during the demonic times of reformation.
Jesus was born in Bethlehem Pennsylvania in 1741.
The James family downriver had a baby boy about the same time and named him King.
Anyway, Jesus met King at Sunday school and dictated the whole bible to him, which is why us Merkins have the King James Bible.

It's the version they grew up with, and since it's uniquely perfect, any change is for the worse.
The King James Version is a masterwork of English prose & poetry and one of the two foundational documents of the English Language. (The other major foundational document is the complete works of William Shakespeare.)
However, as great as it is, it is not infallible, and has missed a few subtle points. Some other translations explain these points, and so should not be disparaged.
But, for sheer beauty of language and clarity of presentation, nothing can match the KJV.
Confused?
