Something I thought was hilarious in a sad kinda way

[FreedomAngel82]

My brother just got back from the bookstore (Walden's) since he hasn't been there in a while. While he was waiting to pay he was talking to the cashier and she told him the most popular book that was stolen was...guess what....the Bible! :crazy: I thought that was nuts. Because one of the Ten Commandments is "thou shalt not steal." I couldn't believe that. :crazy:

1. Christians with sticky fingers?

Why not.

2. I just thought it was weird

since there's a whole "thou shalt not do this and that" ordeal. :shrug: I wasn't expecting the Bible to be the most stolen. Then again I didn't expect a moron in the Oval office either so this world is full of surprises. The Bible is known to be the most popular book so I guess it makes sense that it's the most stolen as well.

3. Considering fundies are some of the biggest hypocrites in the US

Why is is so surprising that the Bible is so often stolen?

4. A Christian Bookstore owner told me the same thing years ago

She said people would steal the Deluxe leatherbound editions and the fabric "bible covers." When I asked her why she thought they might steal a bible (?????) she said, "They want to have nice bibles to carry to church, I suppose. They just don't want to pay for them."

Very sad, huh...
