And if you want to talk about doing weird things with bibles — maybe it’s just my hobby horse, but the KJV craze is chief among them, with its antique terminology and sometimes bad translation. Something, anything, that lends an exotic touch or tone to the faith. Forget that its straightforward message is foreign to the world — we need to see it dressed up.

Maybe so but it is so close to the Douay-Rheims which is an English translation of the catholic vulgate that you would think they came from the same place, and come to think of it I guess they did.
