Have you ever burned a bible?

I’ve burnt one before and I’ve also torn the pages out completely when I was about 16, after getting frustrated one night when I got to thinking about the kind of power and control it has over people. How you see your loved ones has being duped and all the destruction it has caused for mankind and keeping people living in fear with its disgusting teachings of eternal damnation. A gross device for manipulation.

I always keep the oven temperature low enough that Roast Bible a la Antoinette doesn't burn the edges, but leaves them a crispy golden brown.

Can't remember burning one have thrown them in the trash though.

@Stevil I have a nice wood stove try to burn wood to save on the propane use. If I by slim chance come into possession of a misleading fabrication of such, I will see if it lights up fast.

No. I'm against burning books. Even that one.

I have a love for books, so to burn one is a sacrilege in and of itself. This is of course my opinion. To each their own. I don't judge. I see a bible or any other religious text as a work of fiction designed to manipulate.

You've got to have one to do it, but it is probably the only way to make one useful.

No.. but the moderator of a Humanist group I used to belong to would desecrate something religious every once in a while, just to show it was just stuff, not special.

Never thought of that, before! We never want to get 'stuck' on anything!
