I am a baby NT Greek student (2 college semesters so far) but I love 
this study and its ultimate goal: to clarify what the inspired NT 
authors actually wrote as well as what they intended to convey.

Regarding the in-house debate: Wescott & Hort et. al. vs. Textus 
Receptus. Both sides say the other's manuscripts have been either 
corrupted, or lack substantial backing or have been intentionally 
edited or revised.

My question is, what real evidences do we have to corroborate either 
position? Is there a consensus aside from the fact that nearly all 
modern translations rely on Nestle/UBS "critical text"?

Does this fact necessarily imply that the critical text sans apparatus, 
is closer to the autographs?

ERRWSQE,
