>>>1. The argument for the KJV isn't necessarily one of that particular
translation, but more for the use of what's called the Textus Receptus
(or the T.R. as it's often abbreviated).  The T.R. has been available
more-or-less forever.  Modern translations use the Nestle-Eland (hope I
got this right) or Majority texts.  Criticisms against these newer
texts tend to center on such scholasticly relevant material such as
accusations of ungodliness and even homosexuality of the text compilers.<<<


You are right in your assesment of KJV-only peoples logic that the T.R. is
superior to the Majority texts.  But, (unfortunately for them) it is a weak
argument.  There are other English versions that are based on the T.R.
