OK, but as for me, I will stick with the story of Job as told in
scripture.  If the author of the book of Job had wanted us to think
that Job sinned, he would not have said twice that Job was perfect,
upright and unlike any other person on earth.  Why not just accept the
story of Job as is?  I look at it this way: If scripture seems to not
be compatible with doctrine, rather than modify scripture, it is better
it modify doctrine.
