A gay man has filed a $70 million lawsuit against two Bible publishers, claiming their translations of the Bible calling homosexuality a sin caused him “emotional distress.” Credit: rogiro / Flickr The man, Bradley LaShawn Fowler, claims the publishers, Zondervan and Thomas Nelson, have manipulated scripture with the use of the term “homosexuals” in certain revised editions of the Bible. “Fowler alleges that the term homosexual was deleted in later versions by Zondervan but in their 1982 and 1987 translations the publisher uses the term in First Corinthians 6:9 incorrectly,” Liberty Voice reported. “The older King James Version, from which his family pastor preaches, has caused him to be cast away by his family for its use of the word homosexual.” “As a result of suffering 20 years of mental instability and emotional duress, Fowler is suing $60 million from Zondervan and $10 million from Thomas Nelson Publishing.” Zondervan’s spokesperson, Tara Powers, dismissed his claims. “Since Zondervan does not translate the Bible or own the copyright for any of the translations we publish, we are not in a position to comment on the merits of how a word should or should not be translated,” she said. “We rely on the scholarly judgment of the highly respected and credible translation committees behind each translation and never alter the text of the translations we are licensed to publish.” Other gay activists simply wrote their own gay-friendly “Bible” called the “Queen James Version.” “The Queen James Bible resolves any homophobic interpretations of the Bible,” a website promoting the book states. “We wanted to make a book filled with the word of God that nobody could use to incorrectly condemn God’s LGBT children, and we succeeded.”

Ummmm haven't we been hearing (from the LBGT crowd) for quite sometime that the Bible doesn't say homosexuality is a sin?? But then this idiot homo files a lawsuit saying it does and should be removed...
Me thinks this should be filed under "Historical Revisionists A**holes"... Since the revised "Queen James" Bible (gay bible) omits reverences to homosexuality, among other uncomfortable passages that refer to offensive things like "sin", no wonder you haven't heard that lately. The idiot was trying to have passages removed or censored from uncorrupted Bibles, which is worse than simply claiming that the passages are hatespeech. Revising historical events, censoring parts or whole documents and records, and indoctrination are the tools of totalitarians and communists; this mentally unstable tool is doing the same thing!

Good assessment. What this hateful tool is doing is planting the seed of an epidemic wave of totalitarian/fascist censorship and depriving the 1st and 14th Amendment Rights (Free Speech and "Equal Protection") and components of the USCON for the rest of us. The USCON is unraveling fast. At some point our Rights is going to have to be defended by the blood and guts of Believers.
