Revised Standard Version Of Bible Denounced As "The Work of Satan"
DENVER, (AP) -- An approving crowd of 1,200 last night heard the new revised standard version of the Bible denounced as the work of "Satan and his agents."
Rev. Carl McIntire, of Collingswood, N.J., said the new Bible is "an unholy book" produced by "liberalists and modernists" who "do not believe in the deity of Christ."
Thirty-four times during the speech, the crowd chorused "amen." And the people shouted "No" repeatedly when McIntire asked if they could accept the new Bible.
He assailed the National Council of Churches of Christ in the U.S.A., which sponsored the revision, and said the "radical pro-Communist ideas in these very churches are at the bottom" of the Bible project.
McIntire is president of the International Council of Christian Churches and a founder of the American Council of Christian Churches, which sponsored the rally.
