I've just been working through a list of Catholic Bibles in English. Some suggestions:

  1. I believe that our Douay-Rheims is actually Douay-Rheims-Challoner and should be retitled to reflect this.
  2. As we have the Good News Translation with Apocrypha it should be very easy to obtain & produce Good News Translation Catholic Edition
  3. By the same logic, getting the ESV Catholic edition should be easy to obtain & produce
  4. We need to add the Knox Bible, the Jerusalem Bible,  and the Christian Community Bible. Historic use, use as lectionary, lay popularity drives this selection.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
