Welcome to the Conservative Bible Project
Friends,
Do you ever wonder if liberal minded bible translators have corrupted the Holy word of Jesus? Shelley The Republican. It’s true that the Bible is the word of the LORD, however how do we know that his sacred word has not been tainted by liberalism and socialism?
Phylis Shlafly of Conservapedia has been asking exactly this question and has found some astonishing answers:
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.
Isn’t that disgusting? Can you believe that socialists have been deliberately mis-translating the HOLY BIBLE in order to force their perverse anti-Christian agenda on every single American? That is why Shelley The Republican has joined forces with Conservapedia to produce an all-new translation of the bible which will be 100% conservative just as Jesus intended.
- Framework against Liberal Bias: providing a strong framework that enables a thought-for-thought translation without corruption by liberal bias
- Not Emasculated: avoiding unisex, “gender inclusive” language, and other modern emasculation of Christianity
- 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
- Utilize Powerful Conservative Terms: using powerful new conservative terms as they develop;[4] 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”.
- Combat Harmful Addiction: combating addiction by using modern terms for it, such as “gamble” rather than “cast lots”;[5] using modern political terms, such as “register” rather than “enroll” for the census
- 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.
- Express Free Market Parables; explaining the numerous economic parables with their full free-market meaning
- 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
- 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.”
- Exclude Later-Inserted Liberal Passages: excluding the later-inserted liberal passages that are not authentic, such as the adulteress story
Of course, liberals will object to this common-sense purification of the Bible, but the act of objection will force them to read their Bibles and that will open their minds.
Yours in Christ,
Jimmy Goddard

Enjoyed your post, but I still like the King James version for English language beauty. These mutant translations had been plaguing the planet for too long. My oldest brother still has a copy of “Good News For Modern Man”. Ugh! Then there’s the copy of the Bible published in denim. The most shocking was Reader’s Digest’s “Book”. They took all of the genealogical information out of it. It wasn’t pertinent, I guess, and neither is history!

This new Conservative Bible Project has just as much bias and skewed agenda as the “liberal version” you mention. Maybe even more so because yours is intentionally skewed, where as I can’t see any proof that “Lie-berals” (as you call them)had an intentional agenda to brainwash everyone through the word of God.
Try just interpreting the bible for what it says and not what you want it to say in reaction to what you claim others purposefully made it say.
The problem is that you are just as much ‘over-the-top’ conservative as they are ‘over-the-top’ liberal.
You must understand one thing-
JESUS is not conservative, and He is not liberal.
Jesus is GOD. He commands us to be like him and promises to help us do so.
Being Christian is counter-cultural. Don’t put God in your box. Jump into His.

How can you be both conservative (which by definition, rejects new ideas) and open-minded (which by definition allows the creation of new ideas and embraces good new ideas)?

So if you believe that the bible is the word of god, and you intend to rewrite the word of god, does that mean you think of yourselves as gods?
Rather arrogant wouldn’t you say?
Besides taking out the parts you don’t like and rewriting the parts to fit your way of thinking does kinda make your “new and improved” bible more like fiction that it currently is.
Why don’t you write your own bible, start a cult, and drink the kool-aid.

Quick correction. It is not Phyllis Schlafly; it is her youngest son Andrew that owns, runs, and edits Conservapedia, she does not participate.

So you finally found the lets rewrite the Bible project Jimmy. But you missed my favorit part.
Which would be that the “Thou Shalt not Kill” commandment gets in the way of useful things like the Death Penalty so lets change it to “Thou shalt not Murder”.
I’m sure the next change will be an exlusion clause that allows Televangelists to commit adultery.
And yes the whole new translations don’t have enough hellfire was also quite funny.

Yes there is a very real and literal hell.
Before Andrew Schlafly or anyone else goes messing with the divine word delivered by God himself to the ordained King James in 1604. They should realize hell is where they will spend eternity. ETERNITY!
Revelation 22:18-19
18For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
It aint the ordained AUTHORIZED VERSION for nothing.
REPENT…

Ok, if this site is intended as satire, it’s magnificent.
But I gotta say, I don’t think it was all those liberal 12th-century Catholic bishops who inserted “socialistic” words and phrases into the Bible. My guess is that after translating from the original Greek and Hebrew into Latin and then into English, there were probably a few spots were original intent was tough to nail down.
So why didn’t God just write the Bible in English, as he must have known that his true children would all one day speak it? And no, I’m not learning Aramaic or a dead Greek dialect, thank you very much—God can deliver his true, unadulterated Word to me in *my* native tongue. Or is God just another one of the many forces trying to keep English from becoming the official language of this country??? Now I’m all confused…
God: maybe a Mexican immigrant?

My bad, I hadn’t read Bibleguy’s comment (nice name, by the way!). I was unaware that the good Lord would choose a rather openly bisexual king of England as His Chosen Vessel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_I_of_England#Personal_relationships).
Sorry to waste your time, it makes perfect sense now: God intended his Final Revelation to be made to a regal, bisexual spendthrift, and he intended the syntax of that Final Revelation to be utterly incomprehensible to modern ears. Yes. Thank you, I see the light now.

I fail to see how by altering the words of the Bible you DON’T BREAK THIS. Personally, I would love it if your place in Heaven was taken away and you had the plagues added to your lives.
Again, email me please. I wish to speak to you about God’s Hit-List, potential people to add, and I’d just like to know more about you – it’s just this I disagree with. Perhaps there’s a way of joining your church from England? I would would be VERY interested in wiping out as much modern intolerance towards our faith as possible.
Your good friend,
