Busted! But Mundabor, a commentor, is not satisfied and opines:
I am once again not impressed by the Bishop.
–
He should have frankly answered the question about whether this is an area of dissent and should have gone on to say that he considers the new translation excellent, beautiful, totally orthodox, a clear improvement, and the like.
Then he should have invited the Tablet to publish this (that is: *his!*) opinion as they had published the contrary ones.
What he does is to criticise the partiality of the Tablet, without really defending (as in: speaking out and saying “this is good” himself) the new translation, the mention that other have written about the positives is too much of a vicarious defence, I strongly miss the clarity of purpose and seem to detect the desire to permanently sit on the fence.
I think “wily Vin” will have some fortune as a nickname..
