Why should we use the KJV?
Because the translations based on the Alexandrian texts remove very important verses that change doctrine.
Here are some examples:
---
Matthew 17:19-21
>19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
>20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
>21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
Verse 21 was removed which tells you how to expel particularly difficult evil spirits.
Now who benefits from that?
---
Mark 11:26
>26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
Here Christ tells us how important forgiveness is and the consequences of not doing so.

Acts 8:37-39
>36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
>37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
>38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
Here verse 37 was removed which is another important doctrinal scripture as it provides the prerequisite to being baptized.

1 John 5:6-8
>6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
>7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
>8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
Verses 7 and 8 were removed which clearly states the triune nature of God.
