Gotta be a joke.
Well, Jefferson did it, removed all references to miracles. Anyone can redact, it doesn’t change the truth.
What a bunch of you-know-what. I am a Conservative but I believe there is only one Bible. FYI, there is also a “Green Bible” in the Sunday Schools of the ELCA I’m told. Imagine what that’s all about.
Bible translations developed for Catholic use are complete Bibles. This means that they contain the entire canonical text identified by Pope Damasus and the Synod of Rome (382) and the local Councils of Hippo (393) and Carthage (397), contained in St. Jerome's Latin Vulgate translation (420), and decreed infallibly by the Ecumenical Council of Trent (1570). This canonical text contains the same 27 NT Testament books which Protestant versions contain, but 46 Old Testament books, instead of 39. These 7 books, and parts of 2 others, are called Deuterocanonical by Catholics (2nd canon) and Apocrypha (false writings) by Protestants, who dropped them at the time of the Reformation. The Deuterocanonical texts are Tobias (Tobit), Judith, Baruch, Ecclesiasticus (Sirach), Wisdom, First and Second Maccabees and parts of Esther and Daniel. Some Protestant Bibles include the "Apocrypha" as pious reading.

In Christ there is no East or West,
in him no South or North,
but one great fellowship of love
throughout the whole wide earth.
In him shall true hearts everywhere
their high communion find,
his service is the golden cord
close-binding all mankind.
Join hands, disciples of the faith,
whate’er your race may be!
Who serves my Father as a son
is surely kin to me.
In Christ now meet both East and West,
in him meet South and North,
all Christly souls are one in him,
throughout the whole wide earth.
Words: John Oxenham, 1908
Just how do they propose to keep Stephen Colbert from being in the Bible? What kind of translation or mutilation are we talking about? I’m not sure I would want to read from that Bible.
If King James English was good enough for Adam and Eve, it’s good enough for me.
“The Pentateuch and Haftorahs”, JH Hertz, ed.
King James
I seem to remember something about Revelation saying something about those taking away from the book having their name blotted out of the book of life; and those that add to it having the plagues added to them.
Just my stance, but I wouldn’t want to risk either.
I just use the KJV
We already have a Bible that tells it like God says it is, in fact we have two: The Geneva, and the King James.
The rest are Biblical novels, not translations.
They were created to make money and political statements.
Colbert? If your translation of the Bible contains references to Stephen Colbert I do believe that it needs to be scrapped.
This is just dumb.
