Chicoms Want Approved Version of Scripture

Edit: a reader posted this in the comments on the Robber Barron post and what he plans to do to Scripture. Many heretics before him have had their own translations of Holy Scripture featuring their own pet errors, like Wycliff, Luther, Scofield and all too many others. This is a good place for a Chy-NA post.  The Chinese government is planning its own official scripture translation at The Sun:

Although no specific books were mentioned, party officials called for a "comprehensive evaluation of the existing religious classics aiming at contents which do not conform to the progress of the times." 
Reports say bible-bashing China wants all major religions to review their holy texts and to adapt them to the "era of President Xi Jinping".
China officially recognises all faiths but the country is known for its Big-Brother surveillance and policing worship is just one aspect of this.
Beijing highlights that "Jesus Christ's parables" will have to fall "in line with the Communist Party, failing which they run the risk of being purged from the bibles available to the faithful." 
The Bible and Christianity are apparently not alone in being targeted, with the authorities setting their sights on all major religions, requiring a "sinicisation" of the Quran and the sutras found in Buddhism.
The authorities apparently want "a complete reevaluation of existing translations of religious classics".

Meanwhile, Chicoms have plants who have infiltrated the American University system, in Arkansas of all places.  Alex Jones covered the story:

An engineering professor at the University of Arkansas has been arrested by the FBI and faces up to 20 years in prison for allegedly hiding funding that he received from the communist Chinese government.  
The New York Times reports that “Simon Ang of the University of Arkansas, was arrested on Friday and charged on Monday with wire fraud.” 
“He worked for and received funding from Chinese companies and from the Thousand Talents program, which awards grants to scientists to encourage relationships with the Chinese government,” the report notes, adding that “he warned an associate to keep his affiliation with the program quiet.”

Pope Re-Gifts Congress A St. John's Bible

Edit: will it be the boxed deluxe edition set?   Here's the story from Bringmethenews.
When Pope Francis speaks to Congress on Thursday, he’ll come to Capitol Hill bearing a gift. And it’ll be a return to the U.S. for one of the rare editions of the St. John’s Bible. 
The Pope will bestow an Apostles Edition of the Bible, which was commissioned by St. John’s Abbey and University in Collegeville, Christian Post reports.  
The St. John’s Bible is believed to be the only hand-written and illuminated Bible produced since the printing press was invented.
They can probably sell it at a flea market for a few bucks to help pay the expenses for the Pope visit's security.
