If they have experienced what I read in Mt 7.6, they have already
departed this life (- 'and turn and tear you to pieces' - Revised
English Bible translation) !!

There is no problem for me. The fact that there are some
meaningless sentences in the Bible is to be expected. It is normal. It
would be a problem if there were no meaningless sentences in the
original 'autograph' manuscripts of such a large collection of
handwritten material.
