"Professors are the most liberal group of people in the world, and it's professors who are doing the popular modern translations of the Bible," said Andy Schlafly, founder of Conservapedia.com, the project's online home.

time to make a better bible, one for the conservatives of today.

This liberal slanting, Schlafly argues, ranges from changing gendered language — Jesus calling his disciples to be "fishers of people" rather than "fishers of men"
Let's reestablish the social standards of 2000 years ago.
And then, let's make them worse.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

I wonder if Jesus is finally going to be portrayed as the hairy hobo that convinced people that he was the true son of God turning water into booze.

Good: More accurate, which is good for the historical value.
Bad: Makes the religion stiffer and harder to approach for CASUALSSSSS, which is the wrong way to go.

Everyone remembers the part of the bible where Jesus tries to peek at Magdalene panties and then nosebleeds while sweat dropping.

Yeah, "jesus was a white fellow from american descent that raised the dead and forgave the sins of those that prayed to God, you that have money and wordly possessions and are christian will have the kingdom of heaven, no riff raff or darkies will go there, thats what hell is for"

More conservative = closer to older translations.
Pfffft.

"The phrase 'theological conservative' does not mean that someone is politically conservative," said Schlafly, who lives in Far Hills, New Jersey.
They don't give a rat's behind about getting accurate translations or whatever. They want to update the bible to current political conservative standards. :P

Yeah no, look at what they're actually doing. I don't reckon any of them actually know anything of the original texts aside from the whole "fisher of men" thing. So yeah, unlike what they claim, more conservative = rewritten by people who are politically conservative. When something is simply adapting to more recent social standards (men and women alike and so) but keeping the same message, calling that "liberal bias" is politically directed.
