Attention /lit/izens, bow to your king!
There is a reason it is called "the Book"
Poetry, history, philosophy, and theology all perfectly blended into a single edition and given the rightful stamp of "Holy". Lolita cannot stand in it's shadow, Aesop's Fables are not worthy of being it's footstool. Bow to the king of books you ignorant and unwise, Bow with all your might!
What other book contains all of history within it's pages? What other book more accurately summarizes the human condition and the solution? What book is there that can be upheld for centuries, in the face of persecution and censorship?
No one will remember the other novels written by mere mortals, but the Bible shall live forever with the words therein.

The Bible is just a voice in the wilderness, preparing the way for the Lord of all Books

I'm not even religious and I think it's the best book ever written, maybe even with an ironic amen brother!

The Holy Bible was written by mortals, you uncultured pseudo-believer.

I agree. This book is the most printed, most popular, most read book in the world and there's a reason for that.

Fifty Shades of Grey is the most sold book series on the planet. Harry Potter is second.
Guess there's a reason for that too.

We're talking about stories, nerd, not "salvation". Come back when you're ready to talk about the human condition.

I'm about halfway through it. The story is pretty simplistic and wrapped in KJV-style English and with a bunch of sermons thrown in. I'm liking it because I'm fascinated by mormonism, but most readers would be bored stiff. Mark Twain called it chloroform in print.
Some parts are pretty funny though, at one point one of the "authors" says 'I will now read from Isaiah' and the next dozen chapters are a chunk of Isaiah.
An interesting thing is that it's more trinitarian than the Bible. It's repeatedly stated that Jesus is literally God, yet mormons aren't trinitarian!
