Excuse me, my esteemed aerial cephalopod, but I don't see a doctor in front of your name. Those sodas didn't end up hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt getting their doctorates to be dissed by you.
I'm far too modest to mention my 6 years at Harvard Medical School followed by a 4 year residency at Johns Hopkins and, of course, my 134 published papers in medical journals.
Doctor:I'm the doctor.
Me: dr what?
Doctor: no no you're supposed to say who. Why did you say what.
Doctor who intro starts and the title is "the carbonated waters of Mars"
I respect any soda that puts in the time and effort to earn a doctorate degree. You know who I don't respect? Mr. Pibb, who can can take his undergrad ass and fuck right off.
I’m not sure how Roy Furr would feel about that. I wish I could find a photo of some old guy from the 60s to link but apparently it’s also the name of an Internet marketing person.
As a former soda enthusiast I will always die on this hill. Dr. Pepper is Dr. Pepper. No, your Mr. Pibs and Dr. Thunders are not "basically the same thing," just give me a damn root beer instead!

There are multiple translations of the bible. Anything but the original Hebrew is a translation after all.
TL;DR: Ravening seems common in the King James Version and some of it's derivatives, while Ravenous is common in more modern translations, even the strictly literal ones.
EXB says "dangerous like wolves [underneath/inwardly they are ravenous/vicious/ferocious wolves]" (1, only one to say vicious)
GNT says wild (1)
ISV says savage (1)
PHILLIPS says greedy (1)
TLB says "wolves and will tear you apart" (1)
MSG gets rid of the metaphor entirely (1?)
NCV, EXB* say dangerous (1)
NET says voracious (1)
NIV, NIVUK, EXB* say ferocious (1)
WE says "wolves, bad animals that kill sheep" (1)
WYC says "wolves of raven" (1)
That's 13 which say ravening, 22 that say ravenous, and 27 that say something else.
Lets ignore the frivolous rewritings and retranslations and go with popular books. This list is biased toward new versions because it's partly based on bestselling versions, but if you have readership data, I'd love to see it! In no particular order: The New International Version (NIV), the King James Version (KJV), the New Living Translation (NLT), the Common English Bible (CEB), the New American Standard Bible (NASB), the New English Translation (NET), the New Revized Standard Version (NRSV), and the English Standard Version (ESV).
NIV: Ferocious
KJV: Ravening
NLT & CEB: Vicious
NASB & NRSV & ESV: Ravenous
NET: Voracious
King James seems alone with Ravening, but I know many people are King James only, so that's pretty common. New International Version not being either Ravening or Ravenous surprised me, but there you go. Ravenous is definitely common in modern versions, including the NASB which seems to be very literal.
