1. Just out of curiosity, as we enter into Passover and Easter season… have you ever read the Bible? Just the odd chapter or Psalm? The whole thing? (Or, almost the whole thing? It’s some heavy reading, of course, and those “begats” get kind of tedious.) Yes, I’ve read through the whole Bible.
2. If so, was it from religious motivation or from a literary perspective? Stuck with nothing else to read in a hotel room the Gideon’s have visited? Any combination? I was younger when I read through the Bible (though I do want to read it the whole way through again now). It’s definitely a religious motivation in that it’s hard to get closer to God if you do not know His word.
3. If not, why not? Against your religious principles? Too boring? Just not interested? Something you’re planning on taking care of when you get marooned on a desert island? N/A
4. And while we’re on the subject… what about the other great religious works out there? Are they more to your liking? I’m afraid that I’m not a real scholar when it comes to reading great religious works. I tend to stick to books that pertain to something that I want to learn more about or need to improve in my own life.
