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?

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

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.

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.

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