It's my favourite toilet paper. Soft, clean and thoroughly absorbent.

Thor Q. Mada · 07-07-2003, 02:08 AM

Travelling all through the world, since many years, I found it my personal pleasure to throw, both the bible, the koran, and any other unsollicited writing which I find in my hotel room into the garbage can. (apart from the telephone directory)
Lately I bought stickers from this site which declare the bible dangerous writing. However , defacing this vile book is not as great fun as throwing it into the garbage where it belongs. Sometimes in the past I asked the hotel staff to take it away. But then faced with strange stares, as if lucifer himself had checked in, I decided for the discrete way.
Anyway, it is good fun, and many times I forgot some of my belongings in the hotel room, but I have never forgotten to kick at the bible.
Who are these people putting bibles in the hotel rooms?? Do they really think somebody reads them?? Don't they know, there are far better books and even television?? Silly really. Just the thought!!

i'm reminded of the numerous hotel parties that my friends and i had when i was 19-21... it was tradition for me to appropriate the gideon's bible in our room. at the time i was a satanist, so this confused my friends. until the big event.

at a going away picnic for a boss that i had met only once, i showed up with an armful of christian and satanic bibles... and started handing them out to everyone gathered there. i started proselytizing for a generic do-it-yourself religion in whose ranks i was an elder...

needless to say, i confused quite a few people...

I do believe that I learned a few new swear words from those godly young men.

I started laughing so hard, my coworkers probably think there is something wrong with me!!!

soluble_fish hit on one I was thinking of...

Use the Bible to start your own religion. Become rich and famous!

My wife got an NIV Life Application Bible which is both an entertaining read and an excellent resting place for a slightly too short lamp on the end table in my family room.

{Note: It was a gift from an evangelical friend during my wife's "seeking" phase. She's an atheist.}

Ok, excuse accepted. The black helicopters have turned back home now...

Hollow out the pages, and you have a sweet stash spot. Even my curious and creative kids haven't figured this one out yet.

Fill it with explosives and put in a timer, and what do you have?

A HOLY HAND GRENADE!

AHAHAHAHAALOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!1111111111~~~

(Or something.

)

Lessee...what you can use a Bible for when you're not religious...

-Spooge it unto undevout Christians (aka SUNDAY Christians)
-Throw it at people
-Throw it at your neighbor's dog because it won't stop barking
-Shred it up for cage filler
