THE BIBLE

Richard (of RBB) wrote a post derogating The Bible HERE

No doubt Robert, the Christian Cleaner will remind him that he's going to hell for that.
Robert The Christian Cleaner isn't the guy who checks out your underwear drawer or who steals things from your washing line, he's more likely to browse through your library of books and your record collection while cleaning your house. He does this to see whether you are worth redeeming or not. If you show any interest in his religion then look out - there'll be lots of story swapping about his imaginary friends Jesus, God and The Holy Ghost.

In John's Gospel which is basically the story of Jesus (the real Jewish one) he says:
“Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.”
          John 21:25 

....... which suggests that the Bible is incomplete and that every nutter out there can add his or her bit to it.

Scary.

The Bible of course is a bit of nonsense as Richard alludes to but it has a few raunchy stories that have fuelled many a writer or filmmaker's imagination, particularly the Old Testament ones.

Both the Old and the New Testaments have a few stories about Satan who maybe wasn't such a bad guy after all. He was poorly treated by Robert's God and was only trying to eke out a living. Some of the things written about him - particularly the drug-induced ravings of John in The Book of Revelations could actually be defamatory.
