Edit: what began as the trite and self involved, perhaps not worth mentioning in the Boomer Bible, has now entered a new phase in a downward trend to the Dead Sea:
Despite the evolution of societal trends, homosexuality continues to be intensely-debated on moral, spiritual and theological grounds. With the Bible traditionally viewed as a document that condemns the actions associated with same-sex attraction, some anonymous editors have set out to reinterpret scriptures to create a new translation — “The Queen James Bible” — that is favorable to gays and lesbians.
At first glance (and even when you dig beneath the surface), it’s difficult to discern who is behind the publication (the publisher of the book on Amazon is listed as “Queen James”), as there is no organization overtly mentioned on the web site advertising the alternative Bible. That said, the editors, though unnamed, are bold in explaining their intriguing project.

“The Queen James Bible resolves any homophobic interpretations of the Bible, but the Bible is still filled with inequality and even contradiction that we have not addressed,” the web site notes. “No Bible is perfect, including this one. We wanted to make a book filled with the word of God that nobody could use to incorrectly condemn God’s LGBT children, and we succeeded.”

Can I laugh now, or should I wait until the book crashes and burns?
ReplyDeleteFairytale Theatre. And I do mean "fairy".
ReplyDeleteTancred. I read your blog every day and I'm forever shakin' my head. I hope I don't get brain damage.
ReplyDeleteHopefully, you are not referring to the comment sections. :)
DeleteYes, the topics here can sometimes make your hair hurt but it is alot less dangerous than reading the fluff 'n puff of New Advent news, EWTN or even worse...Vatican Insider. It's better to be vigilant and know of the evils so that prayer and reparations can be made. There is plenty of "It's all good." news for those who don't have the stomach for Catholic militancy. Why Paul VI is going to be crowned right next to JPII and if that ain't a sign that all is right with the world then I don't know what is!
We can all relax now. Lets take a front row seat next to Andrea Tornielli and enjoy a German duet on piano. Maybe George Weigel will show up and we can get his autograph. Or let's have some Christmas pudding with Fr. Z. Or visit the National Catholic Register for some New Age catechetics with Mark Shea and Jimmy Akin. If anyone is only kinda, sorta, half-way, maybe a bit not buying their bull, they might try the New Oxford Review or enter the Vortex with Rod Serling...er...uh... Mike Voris. BUT NO MATTER WHAT....one must never... EVER visit an SSPX website, read The Remnant or Catholic Family News let alone Civitas or the TFP. Why that might disturb what remains of one's slumber! But BE AWARE that anyone who has read even ONE expose article from Kreuz.net is excommunicated and can only be allowed back into the Conciliar Church if the pope says "Willkommen!". But don't be surprised if ++Mueller tells you differently because he is really the boss, don'tcha know! You will of course have to sign a doctrinal preamble. Probably written either by ++Mueller or Cardinal Koch. But... if you have spent enough time in the land of Novus Ordo News you should have no problem at all signing.
The Conciliar Religion is the new authority and they have taken care of everything. They have abolished Hell since it was empty anyway, everyone gets to go to Heaven and there ain't no Limbo. They have gone into the whole world and preached their "good news" to every creature. Rejoice!
