bible
it often surprises people when they find out i've actually read the bible. i suspect this is because they haven't. i've read most of both the king james version and most of the new way bible. i was kinda young the first time. i stopped for two reasons. first, it became clear that the bible doesn't say what people think it says. boy do nice old lady sunday school teachers get ticked at you when you question anything they say the bible says. i mean like fire shoots out their ears. and two, i got disgusted by the continuous celebrations of violence. both divine and mortal.
