New International Version, the Bible of choice for conservative evangelicals

That isn't really true, is it? The NIV is a pretty poor translation.

You are correct sir. The NIV is a poor translation that water-down the “Godhead” to “divine nature”, a new age term.

Among others of the thousands of revsions originated by the pederast Westcott.

No it isn't true... but, lies aren't uncommon in AP stories, are they.

Is true. And I see no contradiction between "NIV is a pretty poor translation" and it being "the Bible of choice for conservative evangelicals". Alas.

I try to avoid the NIV whenever possible because it crosses the border between a translation and an paraphrase too often for my tastes. The ESV seems to be growing in popularity as the translation of choice for conservative Reformed Protestants (as opposed to "conservative evangelicals") from what I hear.
