i know, it seems like half of everyone that leaves turns athiest.... but for those of us out there, who figure on still being christian, have you found a translation of the bible that you belive lives "up to par"?

i'm really trying to research, but there's so many, i wondered if you had any input!.

thanks!.

Hey StAnn:

The RSV-CE is back in print (I just bought one):

http://www.amazon.com/Ignatius-Catholic-Bible-Standard-Burgundy/dp/1586171011/ref=pd_sim_b_title_2

It is the 1966 Edition, the same edition that appears on Bibiliaclerus.

Pax,

I like the Revised Standard Version.

I use the Catholic Edition (since I'm Catholic). But there are several others available.

When I read the Psalms, I love to use the King James Version. The language is so beautiful.

You can go to http://www.biblegateway.com and look at verses in several different translations at once.

The site http://www.e-sword.net/ offers free Bible study software. They have the King James Version linked with Strong's Bible Dictionary in electronic form at no cost -- other commentaries too!!

If you go to this site, http://www.clerus.org/bibliaclerusonline/en/index.htm and click on the part of the Bible you want to look at on the left, you will get scripture on the right with links to commentary from the Early Church Fathers on the left side. Great stuff ;-).

This site: http://www.ccel.org/ gives you access to all the Early Church Fathers and other resources. If you join (it's free!) you can download whole books as *.pdf files.

And you haven't spent a penny yet...

When I realized how much genuine scholarship is available online absolutely free, I was shocked that the Watchtower Society continues to insist on having its literature distributed only in print (hahaha) and only by its selected agents (more hahaha). Just more proof that they really ARE all about the money coming in...

Have at it!

WT Cult Evolution Over Last 10 Years

by Farkel in

he thought long and hard before he said he didn't think so, but he did think they were a high control group.

now those of you who know alan are aware that he knows more about the wt religion than everyone in bethel (including the gb) put together.

that was ten years ago, but look what has happened since.. about 8 years ago alanf was making a business trip to new york city and he asked me if i wanted a copy of the wt cd rom.

NanaR

Excellent article, Farkel.

We had all those old books at my house. We looked at them and laughed, just as you said. My father, who was congregation servant and then elder, laughed the hardest.

My dad died in 1991. I don't think he would have liked the direction the WTS has taken since then.

new revised New World Translation

by isaacaustin in

what may i ask is this?

?.

NanaR

I've seen it as well but can't provide a scan (at least not yet).

It does not have a new copyright date (copyrights are 1961, 1981, 1984), but it is identified as the "2006 Printing". Perhaps they thought no one would notice?
