The fact that people who believe the Bible to be the inerrant word of God are rewriting the Bible is a source of constant pleasure to me.
Yes, I have a twisted sense of humor.

Usually only the original texts are considered inspired though
Rather than, for example, the version that they wrote yesterday.

I would view it as simple to just take the earliest documents we have and simply translate them in whatever language you want. I cannot judge what they are trying to do here, but if it is anything other then that I'm against obviously.
I'm not sure whether their version would make you laugh or cry, that depends on your sense of humor.
Amongst other things, their translation of the word "Pharisee" is ...
... go on, guess ...
... "liberal".
Have a look here. That was Mark 3 once, before someone turned it into a political statement.
