Thanks, I forgot about that. While I've never met any Jehovah's
Witnesses, their fundamental (not extremist) views are very similar to
my own and I had once resigned myself to reading their version of the
New Testament. I know that many Americans dislike the Jehovah's
Witness because of their door-knocking, however, I've never fell
victim to it!
The first few pages of their Old Testament seem very faithful to the
original Hebrew, as I've read here:
http://www.watchtower.org/bible/index.htm
However, I find the New World Translation more cryptic that the New
Revised Standard edition, which seems to make a point of using modern,
everyday words. That is important to me. I'll not give any more
opinions on list, but if someone is interested then they can contact
me privately and I will give my views.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
