I THOUGHT I DISABLED "COMMENTS" WHEN I STARTED BLOGGING BUT APPARENTLY I'M MISTAKEN. I REALLY DIDN'T SEE A GOOD REASON TO HAVE COMMENTS AND FELT THEY MIGHT BECOME DISTRACTING. BUT I SEE A COMMENT POSTED JULY 15, 2011 ON MY FEB. 21, 2011 POST AND I'M THINKING MAYBE THERE'S SOME ENTERTAINMENT VALUE IN
"COMMENTS".
I WAS LOOKING ON THE INTERNET FOR DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE BIBLE IN LARGE PRINT AND FOUND THIS REVIEW..........AND COULDN'T STOP LAUGHING.
''AFTER READING VERY GOOD REVIEWS ON THIS BOOK, I KNEW I HAD TO CHECK IT OUT...BUT I REGRETTED IT. THIS IS A HORRIBLE STORY ABOUT SOME ''god " THING THAT CREATES THE UNIVERSE. THEN HE PUTS TWO PEOPLE IN A GARDEN WITH A TALKING SNAKE AND A POISON APPLE TREE. THEN THE WORLD FLOODS AND SOME GUY BUILDS A BOAT WITH ANIMALS. THEN SOME GUY TALKS TO A BURNING BUSH, AND SOME OTHER GUY PARTS THE OCEAN WITH MAGIC. THEN SOME GUY NAMED JESUS GETS PUT ON A CROSS AND THEY KILL HIM. SERIOUSLY... THIS BOOK IS SO BAD. I EXPECTED SO MUCH MORE FROM IT. ALSO, IT IS RATHER LENGTHY, AND I WISH THEY WOULD PUT IT INTO MODERN LANGUAGE, LIKE THOSE " NO FEAR SHAKESPEARE" BOOKS. ALSO, THE ENDING WAS TERRIBLE, BUT THEY LEFT IT OPEN FOR A SEQUEL, SO KEEP ON THE LOOKOUT FOR " THE HOLY BIBLE 2 ". "
AND IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH, I READ THIS "4 OF 11 PEOPLE FOUND THE FOLLOWING REVIEW HELPFUL.
IN CLOSING A FAMOUS QUOTE FROM JOHN ADAMS.
" FACTS ARE STUBBORN THINGS; AND WHATEVER MAY BE OUR WISHES, OUR INCLINATIONS, OR THE DICTATES OF OUR PASSIONS, THEY CANNOT ALTER THE STATE OF FACTS AND EVIDENCE."
