Let me make this perfectly clear, this idiotic idea to re-write the Bible so that it better suits Conservative idelology is not indicative of how all Conservatives think, however, somewhere before taking a "wrong turn at Albuquerque" (Thanks Bugs Bunny) the Republican Party has clearly been hijacked by Far Right Religious Neocons that are determined to eliminate any Biblical reference of love and compassion that was taught by Jesus Christ that does not fit their political agenda.
The Party that has embarrassed America by embracing the "Birthers" movement, supported crazies that carry guns to Presidential rallies (What's next carrying guns to parks and recreational centers?) turned a blind eye to Far Right wackos who believe that President Obama is actually a Muslim "Manchurian Candidate" who happens to also be the Anti-Christ, now gives us "Jesus Christ the Left Wing Hippie". America and the world can only wait and see what will be edited from the most read book in the world. Will it be the verse that reads "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God", or will it be the passage that states "He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God". I'm not sure but don't these Bible verses contradict "today's" Conservative ideology?

Yeah I did a blog about that a month or so ago. THEY will do anything to promote their agenda, even alter the teachings of their god.
