Editor Files Lawsuit After Being Fired For Publishing Anti-"Gay Bible" Blog
Bob Eschliman was an editor for the Newton Daily News, a newspaper based in Newton, Iowa. Eschliman lost his job after publishing a controversial, personal blog criticizing a website which rewrites the Christian bible for a homosexual audience.
Eschliman described the site, “Queen James Bible,” as an attempt by “the Gaystapo” to “make their sinful nature right with God.” The Queen James Bible claims that "homosexuality" was only added to the Christian Bible in 1946, and that a new version without mention of that word can help prevent homophobia in modern society. According to Fox News, Eschilman was placed on paid leave two days after the blog went live. Two days later, on May 5, he was fired.
John Rung, president of Shaw Media, who owns the Newton Daily News, subsequently published an editorial criticizing the former editor and dismissing any notion that the First Amendment would allow him to keep his job.
“The First Amendment does not eliminate responsibility and accountability for one’s words and actions. While [Bob] is entitled to his opinion, his public airing of it compromised the reputation of this newspaper and his ability to lead it,” Rung wrote.

Stripped of freedom of speech and fired for the mockingly titled "Queen James Bible". Almost certainly this is just another staged 'object lesson' for John Q. Public in the ongoing effort to strip male and female identity from society in order to 'trans'-form both male and female into a mindless genderless homogenized mass of subservient 666 global-slaves [link]. The way the script reads on this one is that it is for the coining and use of the word "Gaystapo". In particular, in this case, with reference to the so-called "Queen James Bible". This gives the 'mindless-genderless' agend-ites two birds with one stone with this one: Don't speak out against our agenda - or else, while at the same time providing some new exposure for the "QJB". Like the old saying goes...any publicity is good publicity. The 'gaying' of Christendom is critical to the overall global-agenda, and as most are aware is now in full swing. This publicity stunt will surely forward the overall program that much further. In addition, it may very likely help to advance the mainstreaming of the 'gay bible'. Be aware...you may see it start popping up in stores and wherever....even churches.
Below is a post from a little over a year ago with the details on the changes in the homosexual 'bible'. Also addressed in the post is the statement in the above article that the word 'homosexuality" was not in the Bible until 1946. That is a non-issue though, because the real bible, the KJV, clearly addresses the "sin of homosexuality" without the use of the actual word. This is discussed in the below post, but it will be noted that the specific verses in the KJV that were changed to read homosexuality in the newer 'Westcott and Hort' non-KJV's referred to in the article are of course some of the very verses that are changed in the "QJB":

The Queen James Bible Release: a Story of Malice and Deception
On December 12, 2012 an unnamed US publisher announced release of the Queen James Bible (QJB), dubbed A Gay Bible. It was apparently produced for the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual, and Transgender) community using the 1769 edition of the King James Bible (KJB) for its base translation. The following commentary and conclusions concern the contents of the QJB’s official website, its press release, and Internet coverage.
It is claimed that the term homosexual was not used in Bible translation before 1946. That term was also never used in any preserved text Bible because it did not exist in the English language until 1892, according to Webster’s Dictionary.
Clearly, the decision of the QJB’s editors and publisher was to modify the KJB’s text to accord with the LGBT agenda. To purchase the QJB, its official website directs one to Amazon where God is indicated as the Author and Jesus Christ as Contributor. It is unclear if this blasphemy is attributable to the editors, the publisher, or both. [Full article at above link; well written, informative - @lighthousetrailsresearch.com]

From QJB website:
"Homosexuality was first mentioned in the Bible in 1946 in the Revised Standard Version. There is no mention of or reference to homosexuality in any Bible prior to this – only interpretations have been made. Anti-LGBT Bible interpretations commonly cite only eight verses in the Bible that they interpret to mean homosexuality is a sin; Eight verses in a book of thousands!
The Queen James Bible seeks to resolve interpretive ambiguity in the Bible as it pertains to homosexuality: We edited those eight verses in a way that makes homophobic interpretations impossible."
The QJB is a big, fabulous Bible. It is printed and bound in the United States on thick, high-quality paper in a beautiful, readable typeface.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The claim for the new "QJB..big fabulous bible" is that only eight verses of the KJV were changed. The reason put forth for rewriting the Word of God in these specific verses to a gay-friendly interpretation is the claim that all biblical opposition to homosexuality is based on "interpretive ambiguity...as it pertains to homosexuality". So, to correct this "ambiguity", the 'Gay Bible' editors assumed unto themselves the needed 'creative liberty' to reinterpret the 'incorrectly interpreted' eight passages in question, with, ironically, their own, and ridiculously absurd, gay friendly ambiguity - as seen:
The new 'non-ambiguous' homosexual-affirming re-interpretations of the eight verses "that make homophobic interpretations impossible":
1. Genesis 19:5
And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? Bring them out unto us, that we may know them. (KJV)
And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? Bring them out unto us, that we may rape and humiliate them. (QJV)
(Changes "that we may know them" to "that we may rape and humiliate them")
2. Leviticus 20:13
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. (KJV)
If a man also lie with mankind in the temple of Molech, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. (QJV)
(To "if a man also lieth with mankind"...adds "in the temple of Molech")
