I stole that from the novel, "The Hundred Year Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared." One of the most entertaining books ever written. Ever. Something for everyone!

An old white man impossible not to love.

Since it's on topic--an excerpt:

A typesetter in a Rotterdam suburb had been through a personal crisis. Several years earlier, he had been recruited by Jehovah’s Witnesses but they had thrown him out when he discovered, and questioned rather too loudly, the fact that the congregation had predicted the return of Jesus on no less than fourteen occasions between 1799 and 1980 – and sensationally managed to get it wrong all fourteen times.

Upon which, the typesetter had joined the Pentecostal Church; he liked their teachings about the Last Judgment, he could embrace the idea of God’s final victory over evil, the return of Jesus (without their actually naming a date) and how most of the people from the typesetter’s childhood, including his own father, would burn in hell.

But this new congregation sent him packing too. A whole month’s collections had gone astray while in the care of the typesetter. He had sworn by all that was holy that the disappearance had nothing to do with him. Besides, shouldn’t Christians forgive? And what choice did he have when his car broke down and he needed a new one to keep his job?

As bitter as bile, the typesetter started the layout for that day’s jobs, which ironically happened to consist of printing two thousand bibles! And besides, it was an order from Sweden where as far as the typesetter knew, his father still lived after having abandoned his family when the typesetter was six years old.

With tears in his eyes, the typesetter set the text of chapter upon chapter. When he came to the very last chapter – the Book of Revelation – he just lost it. How could Jesus ever want to come back to Earth? Here where Evil had once and for all conquered Good, so what was the point of anything? And the Bible… It was just a joke!

So it came about that the typesetter with the shattered nerves made a little addition to the very last verse in the very last chapter in the Swedish bible that was just about to be printed. The typesetter didn’t remember much of his father’s tongue, but he could at least recall a nursery rhyme that was well suited in the context. Thus the bible’s last two verses, plus the typesetter’s extra verse, were printed as:

20. He who testifies to these things says, Surely I am coming quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus! 21. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. 22. And they all lived happily ever after. (p 198)

(This is not the main theme of the book--it is about a million things more.) D&D

Haven't seen the movie. Can't imagine it doing the book justice unless the movie was as long as Angels in America.

Song of Solomon.



ETA: Seriously, people don't like that book? It's actually quite good once you've given up religion and are no longer offended by sensual poetry.

The Book of Ruth, who is "officially" (but known to NOT be historically) regarded as the "first convert" to Judaism.

Actual historical facts aside, Ruth exemplifies the CONCEPT of conversion into Judaism (although, historically, non-Jews had been joining the Jewish people--in other words: "becoming Jews"--since times far earlier than those in which Ruth lived).

The Book of Ruth is the basis, according to Jewish law, on which all converts implicitly base the Jewish legality of their conversions.

Puerile as ever, I propose 1 Samuel 18:25

"Saul replied, "Say to David, 'The king wants no other price for the bride than a hundred Philistine foreskins, to take revenge on his enemies.'"

LOL. The only way to make that even better would be to add a talking donkey.

I like the way the leather cover on mine smells. Also the front or back cover, because when I see only that, I know the book is closed.

AMEN! Also my favorite book. Reading it was perhaps my first step toward atheism.

Including Psalm 137.9?

Probably the nastiest verse in the bible (speaking to Babylon):

"Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones."

The "BEGATS" get my misogyny award. All of those men having baby men! Miraculous.

Women doing ALL of the work. Men taking ALL of the credit.

Rant over. Carry on.
