    I’m generally opposed to quotes from that awful fuckin’ book, but context here works.

      It really is just a bad book… Like religious beliefs and politics aside, it’s just not good reading.

      The only people who think it is haven’t read any other book in their adult lives.

        You’d think an all-knowing being ought to be able to write a compelling book. Instead we get one filled with the worst crimes, yet it somehow manages to be soul-crushingly boring. You ever try to read it? Most people only manage a couple pages a day, and that’s considered devout commitment to it.
