you have probably seen the movie "Crumb," a documentary about the cartoonist. If you haven't, you must.

The Old Testament is not for children.

And I wasted my time as a teen reading Lady Chatterley's Lover when I could have been reading the Bible!

BTW, I've read the Quran, interesting, but quite redundant.

It shows the folly of those who use the scripture literally as "Bible"! It also allows the perverted to select passages from the Bible to justify any bad deed.

Filth!

Recently I learned that my favorite underground cartoonist, R. Crumb, had released an illustrated version of the Book of Genesis, that is, the first book of the Bible.

Remembering all those cool stories from Sunday school, I got right on Amazon and bought a copy that came to my door instanter.

Having read through about 33 of the 50 chapters, I became appalled at what I was exposed to an such an impressionable age. Even a degenerate roue like myself blushed at the non-stop fest of orgies, incest, rape, murder and I think I even detected a bit of besitality in there. And all this by the so called good guys. Don't even get me started on the Sodomites!

What were people thinking when they decided that this is the basis for our society's ethical principles?

I honestly don't get it, not even as metaphor.

Maybe I ought to check out the Quran.
