This article has so much butt hurt, it's hilarious.

Quote:What do the Bible, "The Hunger Games" and "Fifty Shades of Grey" have in common? All three are works of fiction, according to the booksellers at Costco.

Pastor Caleb Kaltenbach made that shocking discovery last Friday as he was shopping for a present for his wife at a Costco in Simi Valley, Calif.

“All the Bibles were labeled as fiction,” the pastor told me. “It seemed bizarre to me.”

Kaltenbach is the lead pastor at Discovery Church, a non-denominational Christian congregation in southern California.

He thought there must be some sort of mistake so he scoured the shelf for other Bibles. Every copy was plastered with a sticker that read, “$14.99 Fiction.”

I've heard of the crazy that is Fox News, but never actually read or seen it. The article is pretty hilarious, if it's true, lol imagine that poor guy going through the bibles checking the labels.

That's exactly what I was picturing, pbb

I saw this on my facebook this morning; first thought in my head "I'ma gonna post on atheist forum and link this".

Bother,
You beat me to it!

I shared it though, and my comment was

'No Comment'

Here, my comment is different.

Yeah I just cloned that smiley to be able to collectively demonstrate the amusement level I was at when I read the article.
I don't care what they label it; I know what the bible and quran and (insert any religiously based text of take-your-pick religions from random-tack-on-the-map locations) mean. What they inspire, what they teach, what they preach or pray to/for 50 times a day. The books that try and discredit science (all it's types) in direct favor of whatever it is/was they discovered, or had ingrained into them, or have been swaddled with straight out of the womb, are pure nonsense and completely fictional just like Jack Reacher or Song of Ice and Fire series'.

So the question remains, will Costco give the religious freaks their pudding and take the stickers notating them as fiction off?

Sad that all I am focused on is the fact they referred to the books being on shelves at Costco.

Hey, Costco got one right for once.

It belongs with the Harry Potter books even though those are better written.

Well religious/history books don't tend to be as riveting as fiction....on Harry Potter, I could at least get through the most boring sections of the Bible unlike that children's book series.

God needed a stable of editors to keep his story straight.

Too bad he didn't have one.

Was easy enough to find the corresponding evidence outside of the Bible for Kings and Chronicles, the books borrowed from the Annals of the Kings of Judah and Israel that sadly have been lost to history...who knows what we lost in Alexandria.

Pity all those ancient writers can't sue for plagiarism.
