O come on, in some ways the bible is like Lord of the Rings meets the Brother's Grimm meets crazy desert goat herders. As annoying and dangerous as it can be, sometimes, it's just too damn good to pass up. 2000 years of intrigue, murder, slavery, corruption, torture, misinformation, saints, ghosts, prophets, people flying up into the sky, resurrections, demon possessions, and a water-walker that claims to be his own dad who offered himself up to die for the sins of the whole world and than sends most of those people to eternal damnation anyway.

Are you fuckin kiddin me?? What's NOT to love?!? Who wouldn't talk about this shit?!
