If you tear verses, chapters or pages out of the Bible, you do two things:
1. you render the Book meaningless (so why talk about it?); and
2. you run afoul of very serious warnings, in both the Old and New Testaments, about adding to or deleting from the Word.

If he says (regarding #2) that he is the one who is correcting parts where someone ELSE had added to it, I would say two things:
1. he is putting himself at odds with thousands of years of scholarship; and
2. he must be feeling lucky.

Indeed.....it's one thing to be cursed by the people around you but it's another to be 'accursed by God'.

Galatians 1:6-9

6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:

7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed

Revelation 22:18-19

18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
