I don't know whether King James was a sodomite. I wasn't there. But I do know that a whole lot of people think he was. And they aren't all a bunch of leftwing, masked up, anti-christians either. So at the least, I think there is some doubt. So that's why I think it's kind of funny: why not use another translation then??
king Jam
Malaproop
the mistaken use of a word in place of a similar-sounding one, often with unintentionally amusing effect, as in, for example, “dance a flamingo ” (instead of flamenco ).King James has a lot of intentional Malaproops,,,and not because it's archic: simon who is also called niger [The swallow knows the time of the coming]Tell they pay the uttermost farting you shall nurse at the breast of kings. can't remember how that ones worded they chose shittim instead of acacia tree

Because the KJB has absolutely nothing to do with how James I lived (or did not). According to the translators (who were NOT liars by any means) he was a righteous man as noted in "The Translators to the Reader". And since they were his contemporaries and feared God more than the king, you had better listen to what they have to say rather than rumor-mongerers.
His Majesty's Constancy, Notwithstanding Calumniation, for the Survey of the English Translations
This, and more to this purpose, His Majesty that now reigneth (and long, and long may he reign, and his offspring forever, Himself and children, and children's children always) knew full well, according to the singular wisdom given unto him by God, and the rare learning and experience that he hath attained unto; namely that whosoever attempteth anything for the public (especially if it pertain to Religion, and to the opening and clearing of the word of God) the same setteth himself upon a stage to be gloated upon by every evil eye, yea, he casteth himself headlong upon pikes, to be gored by every sharp tongue.
For he that medleth with men's Religion in any part, medleth with their custom, nay, with their freehold; and though they find no content in that which they have, yet they cannot abide to hear of altering. Notwithstanding his Royal heart was not daunted or discouraged for this or that colour, but stood resolute, as a statue immovable, and an anvil not easy to be beaten into plates, as one saith; he knew who had chosen him to be a Soldier, or rather a Captain, and being assured that the course which he intended made much for the glory of God, and the building up of his Church, he would not suffer it to be broken off for whatsoever speeches or practices.
It doth certainly belong unto Kings, yea, it doth specially belong unto them, to have care of Religion, yea, it doth specially belong unto them, to have care of Religion, yea, to know it aright, yea, to profess it zealously, yea to promote it to the uttermost of their power. This is their glory before all nations which mean well, and this will bring unto them a far most excellent weight of glory in the day of the Lord Jesus. For the Scripture saith not in vain, Them that honor me, I will honor, [1 Sam 2:30] neither was it a vain word that Eusebius delivered long ago, that piety towards God was the weapon, and the only weapon, that both preserved Constantine's person, and avenged him of his enemies.

What part of speech is ism?
Using –ism at the end of a word also suggests the word is related to a belief (or system of beliefs) accepted as an authority by a group or school of thought. The suffix –ism is always added to the end of a noun and a word with a –ism suffix is also always a noun.
I think Malaprop is just the um!? The simplest form of the word.

Never said I necessarily do think that. What I am saying is that the possibility exists. True, the kjv teaches against sodomy. But maybe it could have taught against it a little stronger if people weren't trying to please the bossman?
Again...why won't anyone answer my question? Why not use a different translation?
