..except of course, it does teach important and valuable lessons. If you take it seriously, it teaches basic human concepts of right and wrong. It goes a bit beyond that, of course, but I think some people need the Bible, some people need religion -- and the Bible isn't a bad book or a bad read by any means (I've read it twice all the way through).

Remember that the Bible isn't repulsive, people are repulsive, and people can make the Bible repulsive. Poisoning the water and all that shit.

this is actually a pretty good post
