Sorry, but the RSV was an ECUMENICAL text prepared in the 1950s in a joint effort between Catholics, Orthodox, and Protestants. Because of its nature as a literal translation from Greek/Hebrew, it is one of the preferred English-language scholarly texts in general.

All Wescott and Hort men to the bone.

Westcott/Hort was the universally accepted critical text of the day, just as Nestle-Aland is now.

I must admit that I don't follow why you have a problem with it... I would hope it isn't because they didn't use the Textus Receptus, because that text has its own problems too.
