How did you do that?

You do it by skimming it for a surface level understanding at best so you can assume a false sense of superiority over others.

50 pages in the Bible is a fuckton. I read about 10-15 chapters per sitting and spend an hour and a half on that.

Good, I'm an Atheist and probably have less respect for the text than most, but even I realize you don't just read the book like a fucking novel, it has a plethora of theologic, historic, geographic, cultural, etc references that would be completely missed if you just speed read through it just to say you've read it.

Why do you think being an atheist gives you a pass to disregard the Bible, my friend?

>> No.10403354

A month is perfectly fine for a first reading. Your first reading of most any book should be fairly superficial to acquaint yourself with its structure and themes to better prepare yourself to read it more deeply. Trying to do a deep reading on your first pass is just doing yourself a disservice.

Science only-fags, people who oppose fiction, multiculturalists, egalitarians, globalists, anti-historyfags, ISIS, people who believe in the words of the fourth political power...
And you go for people who wish to protect something? We live in a time when things change rapidly, both intentionally (social structures are built and destroyed with intent) and organically. You choose to go against the allergic reaction...

ISIS want to protect things too. They're just as convinced they're doing the right thing as you are, if not more so. At least they put their nail-bombs where their mouths are.

Something I always questioned

If the Bible is meant for all and is the word of God, why can so few understand it?

If I'm too stupid to read and analyze the Bible,
am I too stupid to believe in God (the Christian one anyway)

What would those be? Property rights? As far as I know, they have been out to get their version of patriarchy; ancient buildings and relics.

You don't need to go full lectio divina to have a decent understanding, even if we up the page count to 1500 to account for footnotes and the like, and TRIPLE the page count on top of that to account for studying the text seriously, that's 4500 pages which rounds out to 150 pages a day. Sick of the number of light reader plebs on this board who gawk at reading more than a chapter a day.
