{"product_id":"2940012002624","title":"The Bible: Exposed or how to be happy in your disbelief","description":"10 REASONS TO READ\u003cbr\u003eTHE BIBLE: EXPOSED\u003cbr\u003eor\u003cbr\u003eHOW TO BE HAPPY IN YOUR DISBELIEF\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1. It’s easier than reading the Bible.\u003cbr\u003e2. It’s funny.\u003cbr\u003e3. If you’re already a skeptic, you’ll know you’re on the right track.\u003cbr\u003e4. If you’re a confirmed atheist, you’ll find fresh ammunition.\u003cbr\u003e5. It answers the eternal question: Is Noah the only boat owner in the world?\u003cbr\u003e6. 500 fewer characters than the Bible.\u003cbr\u003e7. Moral consistency\u003cbr\u003e8. Did I mention that it’s funny?\u003cbr\u003e9. I need the money.\u003cbr\u003e10. Talking donkeys and snakes, giants, flying dragons, zombies, demons and a magic place in the sky where no one ever grows old. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI begin with a brief history of the Bible and all of it’s incarnations, then I take it apart, chapter by verse. Along the way I sweep the figurative from the literal, and I wring the historical from the hogwash. Glaring errors and scientific impossibilities are highlighted. When it gets just plain silly, I gleefully point it out. I ask lots of questions. I offer quotes from the scriptures that you won’t hear in church.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Give up your son today, so we may eat him,\u003cbr\u003eand tomorrow we will eat my son.”\u003cbr\u003e2 Kings 6:28\u003cbr\u003e(Ooh, I’ll bring a salad.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy challenge: Open it to any page. Find a laugh and a bit of information that might come in handy in your temporal life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnjoy.","brand":"stu wulze","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47073258832112,"sku":"2940012002624","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012002624_p0.jpg?v=1763551848","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012002624","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
