Sounds like alot of work for very little return.
I think maybe half a page would be funny, then it would get really tired, and annoying.

The kind of people who cannot understand anything other than ebonics tend to be the kind of people who can't read very well anyways.

If one wanted to cater to them, they wouldn't do so through literature. Books on tape or something, maybe... but seriously, ebonics is defined by a lack of ability to speak english correctly. That's not the sort of thing that's common among highly literate people.

Even the people in the black community who you hear speaking in ebonics (the ones I've encountered) will understand regular english just fine. But if someone was somehow so depraved that all they could understand is ebonics, then their chances of even being ABLE to read are pretty unlikely.

If it was written just as a novelty, then it really would be more work than it would ever be worth. Translation is a very work-intensive process. That is unless you're just doing a half-assed job. And chances are that someone who does a translation of a religious text and has no religion is someone who is pretty likely to relegate it to a half-assed job.

Ebonics is not a language. Its what people use that are lazy and don't want to use correct diction or pronunciations.

In the field of linguistic studies it's considered a viable dialect.

Linguistics is a Descriptive social science, not a Prescriptive social science.

See, language is an intangible. It does not technically even exist. It is just a common system. Saying something is "wrong" is technically..wrong. Because language is not an entity.

I see where you are coming from but it just seems like the last 20 years or so the use of the english language has taken some hits. If you spoke ebonics in my classroom growing up the teacher would either put you out of the room for not speaking right/acting right or she may even think you are one of the "special" kids. Now they let it go when a kid says toof instead of tooth or "Can I ax you a question"

Well, mexican spanish is a good equivalent. I guarantee you... what they speak in mexico is NOT proper spanish. Mexicans and scholars both agree on that.

Revelations

Chapter 13 (the antichrist chapter)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

13:1 And I stood upon da sand o' da sea, an' seen uh beast rise up out o' da sea, havin' seven heads an' ten horns, an' upon his horns ten crowns, an' upon his heads da name o' blasphemy.
13:2 And da beast which I seen wuz like unto uh leopard, an' his feet wuz as da feet o' uh bear, an' his mouth as da mouth o' uh lion: an' da dragon gave him his power, an' his seat, an' great authority.
13:3 And I seen one o' his heads as it wuz wounded ta death; an' his deadly wound wuz healed: an' all da world wondered afta da beast.
13:4 And dey worshipped da dragon which gave power unto da beast: an' dey worshipped da beast, saying, Who iz like unto da beast? who iz able ta make war wiff him?
13:5 And dere wuz given unto him uh mouth speaking great things an' blasphemies; an' power wuz given unto him ta continue forty an' two months.
13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, ta blaspheme his name, an' his tabernacle, an' dem dat dwell in heaven.
13:7 And it wuz given unto him ta make war wiff da saints, an' ta overcome them: an' power wuz given him over all kindreds, an' tongues, an' nations.
13:8 And all dat dwell upon da earth shall worship him, whose names iz not written in da book o' life o' da Lamb slain from da foundation o' da world.
13:9 If any nig gots an ear, let him hear.
13:10 He dat leadeth into captivity shall jet into captivity: he dat killeth wiff da sword mus' be ganked wiff da sword. Here iz da patience an' da faith o' da saints.
13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out o' da earth; an' he had two horns like uh lamb, an' he spake as uh dragon.
13:12 And he exerciseth all da power o' da first beast 'bfoe him, an' causeth da earth an' dem which dwell therein ta worship da first beast, whose deadly wound wuz healed.
13:13 And he doeth great wonders, so dat he maketh fire come down from heaven on da earth in da sight o' men,
13:14 And deceiveth dem dat dwell on da earth by da means o' those miracles which he had power ta do in da sight o' da beast; saying ta dem dat dwell on da earth, dat dey should make an image ta da beast, which had da wound by uh sword, an' did live.
13:15 And he had power ta give life unto da image o' da beast, dat da image o' da beast should both speak, an' cause dat as many as would not worship da image o' da beast should be ganked.
13:16 And he causeth all, both small an' great, rich an' poor, free an' bond, ta receive uh mark in they right hand, or in they foreheads:
13:17 And dat nahh nig might gank or sell, save he dat had da mark, or da name o' da beast, or da number o' his name.
13:18 Here iz wisdom. Let him dat hath understanding count da number o' da beast: fo' it iz da number o' uh man; an' his number iz Six hundred threescore an' six.
don't make me shank ya!

From any sort of non-joking point of view, the bare minimum would also have to include the book of John.

Also fairly necessary:
~The story of Saul
~Exxodus
~Anything relating to Peter

In honesty, all the books serve a narrative and instructional purpose and couldn't justifiably be omitted... unless you were lazy or full of prejudice.
