I, and several other St. Blog's parishioners, blogged about the "Good As New" translation (or should I say, bastardization) of the Bible. Here's another article that provides more examples of the atrocities held within. It's not just about bad philology.
"Henson even cuts out eight entire New Testament books that don't suit him: 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus, 2 Peter, 2 and 3 John, Jude and Revelation.
There's addition as well as subtraction. Following one scholarly sect, he puts the Gospel of Thomas alongside Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, though Christianity discarded Thomas. Henson makes the debatable claim that it's "probably" among the earliest Christian writings and "possibly" as early as the other four."
