'Booty' Is Given The Boot From The Bible
"Catholic bishops have kicked the "booty" out of the Bible.The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has ordered up a new translation of the Bible, one it says is more accurate, more accessible and more poetic.
"Booty" will be replaced by the "spoils" of war when the newest edition of the New American Bible, the English-language Catholic Bible, comes out on Ash Wednesday, March 9.
Fifty scholars and translators, linguistics experts, theologians and five bishops spent 17 years on the project.
The New American Bible is used by U.S. bishops for prayer and study."
