Additional question: If I were to unitalicize these words, would I be a bible corrector?

Even the modern version include these words, so I guess the controversy over them is over. The NASB says "Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also." And the NRSV "No one who denies the Son has the Father; everyone who confesses the Son has the Father also." And the NIV "No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also."

So, does it make sense to have them still italicized? Just a question.

According to the history of your posts (not just today's), it has been more than a question. "Just an accusation" would be more accurate.
