I've been a practicing Wiccan for about a year, but was brought up Catholic, and I continue to seek to come to terms with Christianity.

However, you bring up an interesting point of embellishing biblical texts. To your point, in both bibles, they are full and complete biblical translations by faithful scholars. I think "watered-down" versions of the bible do more damage than these Rev.
