From here on out, whenever we enter a book store we should move at least one Bible, or Koran, or Book of Mormon etc. from the "Religion" section into "Fantasy" or "Magical Thinking" or "Occult."

Been doing this for quite some time. This was at a Borders in West Virginia. Got out of there real damn quick after that, let me tell you.

Hey, I just picked up a whole boxful of out-of-print religious texts and holistic healing rituals.

The Old Testament according to Spike Milligan,
One Wind, Many Flames: Church Unity and the Diversity of the Churches,  
Lectionary Worship Aids: Cycle B,
Unveiling Mary Magdalene,  
Bad Girls of the Bible,  
Won't You Let Him In? :An Advent Study for Adults,  
The Service of Lights and The Great Light: Two Candle Lighting Services for the Christmas Season,  
Advent 2002: The Coming King,
Six Presents from God,
etc.

Needless to say, I don't actually plan on reading any of them.  The library was just throwing them out, believe it or not.

I'm seriously in favor of the idea to sell every religious book (or any item really) that falls into our possession on ebay and donate all profit to the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason & Science. I probably have a few old ones too....  :)

It was written by Liz Curtis Higgs.

She also wrote Unveiling Mary Magdalene.
The first half reads like a novel, and the second half is all scripture/explanations.

:typehappy: I always sneak Bibles over into the "christian fiction" section. -devilish snicker-

I've timed myself. 13 seconds.

4 to find the bible, 4 to wedge it in the fiction and 5 to walk out like nothing happened.

We should make this a sport.
Now I can be re-gognizod!

The force is strong with this one.

I checked, and my bookstore doesn't even sell Bibles.
