1. To build a huge mountain like warriors used to do to bury their dead. And I mean HUGE. All scriptures (except the ancient ones that hold historical value) would be gathered, out of the way in a desolate waste land, and a huge mountain erected. Then people could climb it and camp on it and let their dogs dig and run and pee.
2. Or if we wanted to use them for a purpose, we could use them as padding under a super highway before paving.
3. Or we could shred them and mix them with mulch and "green bin" stuff for those who live in areas with green bins. Then we could sell it to farmers for mulch.
4. Or we could cook it up into a yummy soup and serve it to Xers, (et al) Soylent Green style.
PS: Yes you can affirm. I affirmed......they wanted me to use the B*ble, and when they lifted it, I almost was in contempt of court. Hee. That vile text that destroyed my life..........it would be like making a man who was castrated by his parents hold a scalpel just to prove he is telling the truth.
I am not way off here.... Testify, testicles.....they come from the same word and in the past, men would have to hold their parts to affirm.
