halloween, bible burning
In the midst of the storm over Rome's invitation to disaffected Anglicans, a little light relief is required. If this story, doing the rounds in blogville, is a spoof, then light relief it is. The worry is that it could actually be for real, in which case it's not light relief but lighting fires.

– the website of Amazing Grace Baptist Church in Canton, NC, apparently reports that not only will it be burning all English Translations except the King James Version (maybe they don't know the original was written in Greek and Hebrew?) along with books by more than twenty authors whom they consider to be heretics:
Come to our Halloween book burning. We are burning Satan’s bibles
like the NIV, RSV, NKJV, TLB, NASB, NEV, NRSV, ASV, NWT, Good News for
Modern Man, The Evidence Bible, The Message Bible, The Green Bible,

Their website is password protected, and I felt life was too short to register. But there's the news report, which indicates that there are but fourteen members of this Church, a mere fraction of the number of authors, translators and artists whose work they will burn.
