Bible translation committees are almost entirely stacked with liberal professors whose day jobs are in a culture of liberal style and liberal denial. As a result, liberal denial creeps into the translations, and even outright liberal forgeries of a few passages are allowed to continue in modern English translations of the Bible.
These committees are overwhelmingly stacked with professors who are unable or unwilling to recognize distortions by liberals of key phrases in the New Testament. Critics of the liberal agenda are excluded from these committees. People with a STEM background are also excluded.
NASB
The New American Standard Bible, as published by the Lockman Foundation, has pushed to include new references to women in italics.[1]
Academic bias
Bible translation committees have an academic institutional bias. Characteristics of this bias include:
- preferring emasculation rather than the masculine;
- a pedantic insistence on consistency rather than empowerment;
- an exclusion of insights from STEM fields, or nearly any field other than that of the professor himself;
- an unjustified disdain for those not formerly educated for years after high school or college;
- refusal to candidly translate verses that criticize intellectualism, such as 1Corinthians 1:17 ; and
- a conformance to political correctness.
