Wait... There's a liberal and conservative way to translate something? That doesn't sound professional to me, no matter how you look at it.

well Liberal bias has been inserted into the bible making Jesus look like he's not a staunch supporter of the rich eating the poor.

The rich are cannibals!? :O
Even though there's at least one story where Jesus makes it clear that being rich is a distinct downside, in part because he takes care of everything else before addressing it, thus leaving no room for him to mean anything else. Even in translation. (*Looks it up* Mark 10:17+.)
Oh, well. What can you do with stupid, right?

The current translations don't have enough about society being ranked by monetary value, the absolute requirement of the income tier system, and of course, not enough references to the United States being chosen by God to save the world from the evils of other religions.

Some people can be silly, like that. They probably point to Job as an example, but fail to realize that he had achieved his wealth because he had followed God's words... which I doubt many people do, in achieving their wealth. So much for not coveting, for example.

There's a religion for people who don't believe in Christ's message having value but playing up the importance of the Old Testament.. no wait they want to eat pork too.
