mfw the bible is the greatest work of art, both politically and

The coke logo is more globally recognizable, ubiquitous, and economically relevant

OP, how to interpret this? You like the bible but its sending you to hell? Maybe am wrong?

>>9349340
well, it influenced europeans culture and value.

It's clearly on the western canon.

I would say shakespeare and the koran already enters into the same realm of influence.

>>9349362
nah, i'm not religious in the slightest, but if you look through the majority of countries with any sort of western interaction, the bible appears as an overwhelming force which stands victorious in the cultures; just pretty cool really how something can be that widespread, same with the quran just i dont feel it is as much

>>9349340
Envious people like you only say that because the Bible has no author, so they take pleasure in denying merit to all the other great individual writers of history

>>9349381
It's more that I take pleasure in bestowing all the glories of art upon a gaggle of goatherds who couldn't wash their dicks.

let's not fall in eurocentrism pls.

every culture has some major literarian works that shape it.

For an hindu and a japanese the bible has not major impact.

>>9349381
nah, i genuinely think there have been so many good authors (dare i say great? i mean, its all personal really) beginning with Sappho and all the way up to Eugenides

You've a strange sense of humor, friend! But the bible is a good book.

>>9349340
Meh, it's alright

>>9349340
Only if you appraise it's quality teleologically

>>9349389
>the bible only had an impact on the west
