The story of this alleged "translation" is a few weeks old but I found this quote interesting:

'The background of the "bible" is mysterious. No publisher is identified, nor are any editors mentioned by name.'

If they're so "proud" of what they have done and stand for, then why wouldn't the publisher and editors want to be identified? Very telling indeed.

I cannot even take the ASB or NLT translations. KJV only. My kids have NIV until they are a bit older and then I give them all a KJV.

All those “extreme student” translations also are not allowed in my home.

I bet Soros has some ties to this.

(1) The 1769 text is a standardized one, because no two copies of the KJV before that date were the same.

It was basically an attempt by Oxford printers to create a uniform version.

99% of KJV Bibles in print are the 1769 edition.

(2) King James did have a very questionable personal life. but he was not directly involved in doing the translating.

Homosexuality was well known in the ancient world. So there is no reason to believe that the original Greek and Hebrew texts would be vague or misleading.

Just another attempt to dictate morality to God.

Kind of funny given the “Queen” James rumors.

I am waiting to see the KKV.
That’s the “King Kong Version” which omits all prohibitions against bestiality.

Just a couple of lines in Exodus and Deuteronomy.
Snip. Snip.

Well does this blasphemy allow us to pour into the streets and kill a few people or maybe attack an embassy or maybe a Broadway play, or tear up some throw pillows?

Seems the fags want to get into bed with the 6th century sand monkeys and make up a religion.

I don’t know why Christians are giving this air time. It’s like some of the works that have showed up in art galleries. It’s written by those who are deliberately trying to sling mud at the cross of Christ. And it’s talked about by atheistic jounalists who want a good laugh or to pour scorn on the moral values of the church. Is this anything new? This book is nothing but pornographic material in my mind.

No one’s going to buy this book. A few gays may buy it for a laugh but does anybody think they go to church? In the end it will go away-except for the judgment that awaits the person who wrote it. In due time their foot shall slip.

These people can do whatever they want. That doesn’t change what is.
Their perversion is only a temporary sidetrack to what is real.
If we stop to give them a notice, we stall the progression of mankind toward a normal end.
We should only treat this as a piece of tissue rolling down the street.

The homosexual sex practitioners have no principles save those they fabricate to make themselves feel better about what they choose to disgustingly engage in.

...and on the eighth day the fairy queen said let there be anal lube and the leftist fairies organized the lubrication community and informed them that it was good. The leftists, RINOs, and libertarians all joined in spreading the lube far and wide proclaiming that lubrication justice and orifice diversity had finally been realized by the great anus of man who they worship to this day...
