"Do you read the Bible?" - T. M. of Ontario

Absolutely. As much as I resent Christian bigotry, I recognize that I live in a decidedly Christian culture. So, even though I do not call myself a Christian - nor ever will again - I would only be depriving myself of understanding if I did not read the Bible. It is a part of the world I live in.

I not only have read the entire Bible in the past, and studied it on many occasions (even recently), I also keep a good quality personal NIV/KJV Bible within easy reach near my bunk in my cell as a reference while reading or even just watching TV. I consider myself more familiar with the Bible than most Christians, and quite frankly, I respect the book, but not the religion it is used to perpetrate.
