I am going to be a junior in High School next year and am taking AP Literature. As a prerequisite, I need to read multiple books over the summer. However, for one of them, I get to chose between the Handmaid’s Tale and the Poisonwood Bible. I don’t care which is easier, just which is more enjoyable to read. Anyone who is familiar with them, what would you choose?
I guess I shouldn't have taken the Lord's name in vein.
If i told a Christian ,for example, how bible glorifies rape in some (by some i mean many) instances, theyd say im lying but in reality, there is so many parts praising and encouraging it.
Religion is helluva drug, kids
So he could spread the word
Sega Genesis.
Turns out there was a lot of cross referencing.

When thrown at a close-range, especially.
For instance, when I was watching the Bible Project, I realized the Epistle to the Romans was written at the time when the Jews returned to Rome after once being evicted by the Roman emperor, and there were arguments between the Jews and Gentiles about whether to keep certain Moses's law. I am really mesmerized by this sort of knowledge and wondering how I can get more. What are some books I can read to know more? Thank you so much!
Christians got the Bible’s autographed by the man guilty of all the deadly sins while a casino was paying for the funeral costs of the victims.
As the Bible says, you shall know them by their fruits.
EDIT: The Poarch Band of Creek Indians owns and operate the following casinos: Wind Creek Casino & Hotel, Atmore; Wind Creek Casino & Hotel, Wetumpka; and, Wind Creek Casino & Hotel, Montgomery. Tip of the hat to the Native tribes who used their Casino wealth to act more Christian than the Christians in a time of need.
I guess you can call me an eightheist
Before you go all pork on me, I'll give you some insight. In Islam you discard anything with God's name on it by burning it. Yesterday in Statistics, our teacher found a Bible that was left in our class. No one knew who it belonged to and our teacher said, "You can't throw it in the trash right?, there's a thing against that.?" and I, THE ONLY HIJABI IN MY GRADE said "I think you're supposed to burn it" The whole class turned and looked at me like I wanted to kill them. I just checked and one of the proper methods of disposing a bible is by cremating it so I was right. I posted it in r/izlam, and someone commented "Yeah, in germany we have bad memories about burning books, but we were mostly nazis back then burning anything that is against fascist doctrine" maybe the reactions were because I live in a primarily jewish town, or because christians are unaware of how holy scriptures are to be recycled. TL;DR: My teacher asked how you dispose of a Bible and I said to burn it because that's the proper method but looked SAVAGE

Hi Reddit! My name is Dominic Milton Trott.
I have led a relatively normal life, working in IT and as a father in the UK. Later on in life, I became interested in researching psychedelics and recording my experiences. I also frequented online drug forums, where I noticed that some users would suddenly drop off the radar, having died during their experimentation. I thought that if I could share my knowledge of what to expect along with the relevant safety information - the proper dosage, duration, precautions, etc - I could help to save lives.
I self-administered the drugs for a number of years and turned what I learned into a book, The Honest Drugs Book. I've now updated it with more drugs - 157 in total - and renamed it to The Drug Users Bible.
I have been interviewed by Vice and have just done my first on camera interview with Freethink, available at https://www.freethink.com/shows/dope-science/drug-use

The Bible says that if your eyes or hand cause you to sin, you should gouge out your eyes and chop off your hands.
It doesn’t say to blame women....
