I have read the entire Bible twice, and studied it regularly until I left my parents house.

At least twice.
And I also spend a fair amount of time in hotel/ motel rooms drinking and reading from the book in the room. Entertaining but not enlightening.

I read it on a dare once. I found it arrogant and boring. I also read the Bhagavad Gita, and the quoran. I found the story about Krishna the most interesting. But still very fictional. They are just books.

Yup!

Yes. I have. 12 years of Catholic school. Also, as an adult. Another good read is The Book of God - The Bible as a Novel. It makes it read like a nice long story or an epic movie. The Character are more detailed and the cultures and practices of that time are explained. Making it historically more interesting . I enjoyed it.

I read the Bible 3 times from cover to cover by the time I was 15. I have done no Bible reading since the age of 18.

One doesn't have to read a book cover to cover to know it's complete bullshit.

In the middle of reading it. Leviticus is annoying as hell, the repetition is pissing me off, lol

I've made it most of the way through. It's interesting that, if you're taught its the infallible Word of God, and read it with devotion (assuming it's right and if you don't understand it's your problem) that you can miss so much obvious bullshit. I'm not sure what exactly flipped the skeptic switch in my brain, eventually, but ever since I find so much bullshit in the Bible it's staggering.
The Skeptic's Annotated Bible is on my shelf and on my list to sit and go through some day. "Drunk with Blood" is a good book, if you want to get a sense for how evil the "god of the Bible" is, condensed. Pure evil. On the level of Hitler. How did I miss that all those years?

I sure have.

3 times start to finish, many extracts dozens of times.

Serveral times. Spoiler alert... "it wasn't the devil, it was God."

I have read it in many different forms. The Christian Bible and the Eastern Orthodox Bible as well as the Catholic Bible. They are all differing books. Same idea but the see it differently.

Many many times....

No chance

Heavens no, I got shit to do. But, as soon as they make it into a movie, I'm on it

You mean including the parts that have been left out like the Book of Mary?

Reading the bible took me from "an atheist" to "holy shit I am such a fucking atheist you don't even know."

No, I love to read, but I have never felt the need to read the bible.

I have read the Bible the koran the Book of Mormon part of the Vedas didn’t get to the Upanishad I read a little bit of the Tanaka and read quite a lot of the writing of the Baha’i. Been thinking about looking at the Tipitaka. But they are all bullshit. .

In the words of a recent YouTube video gone viral: "Ain't nobody got time for that!"

I have read it from beginning to end three times.

Not a single verse.... Why would I want to do that??

By the age of 15, I had read it from cover to cover 3 times.

A couple of times through. One round specifically to see if I could spot a phophesy, all these prophesies jesus was supposed to fulfill, could one discern a phophesy from any of the other noise. I did not spot a single one. Oh sure cherry pick, a pharse about born in the city of david, but it is shuffled in with a lot of other stuff, I saw no indication that that pharse was talking about a messiah, or even the future. My father is going through it right now, I asked him to pay attention and see if he can spot any time in the old testament where the jew is instructed to be kind, loving or even civil to his neighbor. Jesus was admonishing them for not being loving toward one another, but their book never suggests they should.

Also read through the book of morman a couple of times. Spoiler alert, the mormans follow their book about as religiously as the evangelicals follow theirs.
