Own Bible?

One of the funniest objections that I heard  people say, "You have your own Bible" (meaning, of course, transfer). Especially strange sounds from the mouth of the faithful ones of the Orthodox Church, which has exactly the same "own Bible." The Orthodox Church in the same way using only its own official translation and stubbornly do not notice all the others, many of which are much better.
Orthodox churches are not interested even translations, such as a very good translation of Bishop Cassian. In the minds of many people there is some real Bible, not "mine", and is not real, "his own." The fact that all but the smallest denomination has its own version of the translation, which she is the default. The Orthodox Church is the King James Version, the Catholics - New Jerusalem Bible, the Anglicans - King James Bible, all Protestant denominations also have their translations (from the Russian is a modern, Kuznetsova Lutkovskaya, Zaoksky Institute, DBR and many others.) In all but the smallest group has its own translation, in which, yes, reflected some theological nuances specific to that group. This is inevitable and perfectly normal.Creating a completely neutral and equally respected by all religions without exception transfer unlikely.
In this respect the Jehovah's Witnesses and other transfers often quote them in their literature - in other translations of the Orthodox Church deliberately rejected as incorrect. And this despite the fact that the King James Version - one of the worst Russian translations. (This is not so much his problem as its source, the so-called generally accepted text or Textus Receptus.) 

When Jehovah's Witnesses abandon the argument of "my Bible", they are, in fact, make it clear that they are worse than others. Orthodox churches and the rest can be "my Bible", and the witnesses - not. In other words, believers are inferior.
