Stressed is Desserts spelled backwards.

The Bible, the world's best-selling book, is also the world's most shoplifted book.

Well, too many desserts surely stressed your stomach.

Hahaha, who in loyd's name would still a bible? People freaking give them out.

[Apirka]

I've read the bible before. The old testament is pretty cool. Lots of fire and death.

[Psybuster]

I haven't seen a bible before. So I haven't read it also.

[Theredbaron]

....Lucky.

[Psybuster]

How can that considered lucky ?

[Theredbaron]

Now that is a very complicated answer. In my view, people doing what they say the "bible" says has caused many hardships. I am not one who says the bible is bad, ect, I think it is a great book, that teaches good values. However, I don't believe that people should be killed, or wars fought over it. Especially since all the president day bible is is a collection of oral stories, that the pope of the time combined into a single written work hundreds of years after they started being passed down. He picked what he wanted to be in it. Some of the less then politically acceptable stories, but that was still considered canon didn't make the cut. Among them were stories of angels, giants, and even Lilith (who just so happens to be Adams first wife).

A book that cause's so much misery, even though at it's core it is trying to do good, is just not one I could even like.
Though, if the last library was burning, and I could only save a handfull of books, It would be in it, as would the Qur'an, and a few others.



Sorry if I rambled on a bit.

Ghandi said, "I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ." I love that quote. It's so true.

[Theredbaron]

Agreed.
The book is good, just not what people do in it's name.

[Apirka]

It still has a lot of bullshit in it too, but there are some good lessons in it.
