I will quote someone with whom I was speaking yesterday regarding the RCC: "The catholic church is as pagan as the relativists of today. They change their views with the wind and change the color of their skin like chameleons"


It is well-known that the RCC has been making an effort in the last several years to reunite Christendom. There is also an effort on the part of many protestant denominations (Lutherans, Methodists and even some PCUSAers) to reunite with the catholics. Pope Benedict is doing this for no other reason than to gain control of the protestant denominations.

Including the NRSV!

About the NRSV
The NRSV first appeared in 1989 and has received the widest acclaim and broadest support from academics and church leaders of any modern English translation. It is the only Bible translation that is as widely ecumenical:

The ecumenical NRSV Bible Translation Committee consists of thirty men and women who are among the top scholars in America today. They come from Protestant denominations, the Roman Catholic church, and the Greek Orthodox Church. The committee also includes a Jewish scholar.
The RSV was the only major translation in English that included both the standard Protestant canon and the books that are traditionally used by Roman Catholic and Orthodox Christians (the so-called "Apocryphal" or "Deuterocanonical" books). Standing in this tradition, the NRSV is available in three ecumenical formats: a standard edition with or without the Apocrypha, a Roman Catholic Edition, which has the so-called "Apocryphal" or "Deuterocanonical" books in the Roman Catholic canonical order, and The Common Bible, which includes all books that belong to the Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Orthodox canons.
The NRSV stands out among the many translations available today as the Bible translation that is the most widely "authorized" by the churches. It received the endorsement of thirty-three Protestant churches. It received the imprimatur of the American and Canadian Conferences of Catholic bishops. And it received the blessing of a leader of the Greek Orthodox Church.
The NRSV is truly a Bible for all Christians!

The PKN (state church in the Netherlands, and an amalgamation of the Netherlands Reformed Church, Christian Reformed and Lutheran Churches) is also in dialogue with Rome about the road back to Rome...
