The LOLcat Bible?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

New International Version ?

King James 1611 ?

Catholic ?

That revised and corrected one Joe Smith did for LDS, announced a direct revelation from God ORDERING the LDS to publish it, that LDS did NOT publish, (even 100 years later) that the RLDS did publish, that was pronounced by a noted Mormon apologist as true and faithful to the handwritten version in Joe Smith's own hand (a copy of which is still in the LDS secret archive) ??

Good question.

The answer is "yes."

Please, the proper name is The Bronze Age Goat-herders' Anthology of Campfire Tales for Boys: God's Little Instruction Manual for Handling Slaves, Sex Slaves, Kitchen Help, Naughty Offspring, Babysitters and the Soon-to-be-extinct Tribes Next Door.

I prefer the Buggre Alle This Bible.

I'm pretty sure that's been supplanted by the newest revision, Morality for Dummies.

Mississippi was listed as the official worst pound for pound state in America last year, so this should come as no surprise.
