The Most Shop Lifted Book
The Bible is the world’s best-selling book. The bible is also the world’s most shoplifted book. Must be those Gideon bibles in the motel rooms getting shop lifted. It must be because of it’s popularity and longevity. It probably has something to do with the fact the book has been around for a very long time.

Given that the Gideons have taken on a mission to spread bibles across the world and gives them away free, I always thought you were welcome to take the Gideons Bible from the room if you wanted a copy of the bible.
It would certainly fit with the intent of Gideon International.

hey meaghen just because it is sold the most doesnt mean its true. It just means enoguh people through a span of thousands of years were too afraid of thinking that there really wasnt a purpose or higher being to explain why they are here on earth that they decided to turn to anything that might give them shelter from the true harshness of the world

I’d like to point out that ‘your stupid’ is also wrong. As a result of this i have come to the conclusion that you’re stupid!

Matt, you comment on how people here cannot spell. But you clearly aren’t the brightest crayon in the god damn box either. You say that they’re stupid. Yet you spelled it possessively, not objectively: YOU’RE, NOT YOUR! Jack ass…
