Now that I've done you all a great favor (sparing you the trouble of getting anywhere near the Ripper's "work") I'd appreciate it if someone would return the favor. The opening chapters seem to claim that you can't find a good copy of either the Hebrew or Greek texts. From that I'd expect her to conclude that PRESERVATION IS BUNK! That sure isn't the conclusion I'd expect the Ripper to lead me to. Where did I miss my turn?

Good for you, likeuntohim. It's sounds like you're reaching the conclusion that Riplinger is an utter crackpot.
I read her
New Age Bible Versions from cover-to-cover a few years ago. I found it laughable. One of its major flaws is that she thoroughly confuses the life of B.F. Westcott [1825-1901] (he of "Westcott & Hort") with the life of a William Wynn Westcott [1848-1925]. She even somewhat admits to the confusion deep within one of her footnotes!
Here is some information on the
other Westcott:

She repeatedly libeled B.F. Westcott by associating him with words & actions that were in reality those of W.W. Westcott.
