Bibles for Christmas gifts choosing the right edition
This piece urges readers to pick readable modern translations over ornate bindings, noting the King James and Douay Rheims are venerable but archaic. It highlights the New English Bible, The New Testament in Modern English by J B Phillips, and the Revised Standard Version with Catholic editions, plus guides like Harper Study Bible and Oxford Annotated Bible for rich features.

Prayer Case Confusion Stalls Clarity in Public Schools
United Press International reports ongoing confusion among school officials and parents about the Supreme Court prayer rulings of 1962 and 1963. A survey of 16,000 principals suggests about one quarter of high schools still conduct classroom religious observances ruled unconstitutional while others have removed Bibles. The Engel and Schempp decisions prohibit compulsory official prayers and Bible readings in classrooms.
