I don't think I've ever seen one. Is it as bad as the RSV?

To be honest I don't really know much about it.

I remember reading side by side verses online - which I do from time to time to try to gather context - and from what I remember I was thinking it sounded like a bunch of new-aged sounding garbled nonsense.

I'd be interested in knowing what if any denominations read this.

I'm willing to be corrected if I'm wrong. If I have time I'll go pull a few verses and report back.

Well at least John 6 seems about right. I've yet to see a single translation not.

John 6:
52Then the people began arguing with each other about what he meant. "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?" they asked. 53 So Jesus said again, "I assure you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you. 54But those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them at the last day. 55For my flesh is the true food, and my blood is the true drink. 56All who eat my flesh and drink my blood remain in me, and I in them.

This statement that transformed the entire planet, yet there are still some who still refuse to believe it. Just as the naysayers did back then.

BTW what is wrong with the revised standard version? I've asked others but I haven't heard much negative on it.
