I was thinking that if the LXX was written during the 400 "Silent Years", and if it includes the Apocrypha (written during that period, too), then I would be suspicious of anything (such as the LXX) written during the period when God was "silent" -- especially those that contradict the Authorized Hebrew O.T.
Although I believe there was no pre-Christian LXX, I would say that "even if" it did exist before Christ, I would be highly doubtful that it was the authorized, pure Word of God.
