I read Leonard Pitts’ column, “The gospels according to the Cheney apostles,” about a group of conservatives who are going to revise the Bible to eliminate anything that sounds liberal (Sun Journal online, Oct. 18). They’re going to do to the Bible what Fox News Channel does to the news.

I can already imagine what the conservative Bible would look like. The 23rd Psalm would be revised to include the right to bear arms. The part where Jesus says that a camel has a better chance of passing through the eye of a needle than a rich man has of entering the Kingdom of Heaven would have to be cut out. Loving thy neighbor as thyself will be amended, adding, “… if they think like us.” The Sermon on the Mount would include conservative talking points.

The four gospels of the New Testament — Matthew, Mark, Luke and John — would be changed to six, with the addition of the gospels of Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin.
