I love their third example of liberal bias:

Socialism

Socialistic terminology permeates English translations of the Bible, without justification. This improperly encourages the "social justice" movement among Christians.

For example, the conservative word "volunteer" is mentioned only once in the ESV, yet the socialistic word "comrade" is used three times, "laborer(s)" is used 13 times, "labored" 15 times, and "fellow" (as in "fellow worker") is used 55 times.

From Conservapedia: (better than ONN news)

As of 2009, there is no fully conservative translation of the Bible which satisfies the following ten guidelines:

1. Framework against Liberal Bias: providing a strong framework that enables a thought-for-thought translation without corruption by liberal bias.

2. Not Emasculated: avoiding unisex, "gender inclusive" language, and other modern emasculation of Christianity.

3. Not Dumbed Down: not dumbing down the reading level, or diluting the intellectual force and logic of Christianity; the NIV is written at only the 7th grade level.

4. Utilize Powerful Conservative Terms: using powerful new conservative terms as they develop; defective translations use the word "comrade" three times as often as "volunteer"; similarly, updating words which have a change in meaning, such as "word", "peace", and "miracle".

5. Combat Harmful Addiction: combating addiction by using modern terms for it, such as "gamble" rather than "cast lots"; using modern political terms, such as "register" rather than "enroll" for the census.

6. Accept the Logic of Hell: applying logic with its full force and effect, as in not denying or downplaying the very real existence of Hell or the Devil.

7. Express Free Market Parables; explaining the numerous economic parables with their full free-market meaning.

8. Exclude Later-Inserted Liberal Passages: excluding the later-inserted liberal passages that are not authentic, such as the adulteress story.

9. Credit Open-Mindedness of Disciples: crediting open-mindedness, often found in youngsters like the eyewitnesses Mark and John, the authors of two of the Gospels.

10. Prefer Conciseness over Liberal Wordiness: preferring conciseness to the liberal style of high word-to-substance ratio; avoid compound negatives and unnecessary ambiguities; prefer concise, consistent use of the word "Lord" rather than "Jehovah" or "Yahweh" or "Lord God."

This process of taking a current religious teaching and changing it to suit the establishment of the time is something that has been going on for as long as we have had religion. The bible at best is best of soup of pre-existing religious notions pasturized and homogonized to suit the needs of those in power. Ie, it was created by the Roman power structure to suit their power structure. Becuas4e one god is easier to corrupt rather then lots of gods.

That it is happening again simply shows that the power of the current best of gods volume 19 isn`t best enough and needs a new revision to suit the needs of those who use it as the tools it was designed to be.


I hope this serves to weaken the religious resovle of those who have the foolish neigh on retarded notion that the bible is the literal word of god and as such could not have been changed by man because he wouldn`t let it. Well, firstly, he doesn`t exist, at least not at the childish confines the religious fold would have you believe, and man has most certainly changed the bible over the years(given that the new testiment is based on the writings of people who lived aas much as 75 years after the supposed christ figure died.

There`s no need to re-write The Bible. Why not just write a sequel to it. After all it is the ultimate best-seller book. And then name it something catchy like "Bible 2: The real story".

Jesus becomes a Neo-liberal who makes the people of Nazareth pay into Holy insurance if they want his guidance or help, and rather than throwing a fit in the temple and turning the moneychangers` tables over, he deregulates their trade, and recommends tax breaks and that the poor should cover any shortfalls.

He says that it is the rich who deserve aid, rather than the sick (Matthew 9:9-13).
