Has anyone heard of the conservative bible?

RE: Has anyone heard of the conservative bible?
I find it funny. Here is the original from Mark below:

21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.

And the "improved"

22 The man was sad to hear this, and grieved as he left, because he had a lot of "stuff."

RE: Has anyone heard of the conservative bible?
This gives me a great idea. I think that I know how I can make millions of dollars! I will write the new super-conservative bible!

Old version:

21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.

New version! :

21 Jesus loved the man and he said to him, "God blesses those that he loves with many possessions and much money. Come, take up the cross, and follow me and you shall have even greater treasure in heaven."
22 This made the man very happy because he had great possessions and he would be even richer in Heaven.
