Unicorns in the Bible?  Why I don't recommend the King James Version

In nine places the King James Version of the Bible uses the word unicorn.  This might give the impression that the Bible speaks of the mythical horse-like creature, but does it really?  In this video, I look at how the King James translators got this reading as a lighthearted way of explaining my reasons for thinking there are better translations available today.
